Hi Robert, Thanks for your reply and the screenshot. If the checkbox appears for every section, that does indeed solve my problem. For example, if I have a "Wine Team PPA" and a "Banshee Team PPA" is it possible to deselect individual PPA groups or does the checkbox apply only to -all- PPAs such that unticking the checkbox would untick all PPA updates for every PPA listed?
