Arthur, I don't see the "debate" you mention anywhere in the article you
linked to. Anyway, "software" is a mass noun, so "install it" is
correct. If we referred to "software updates" instead, then "them" would
be correct. I chose "updated software" instead of "software updates"
because that avoids having to change to a different message whenever
only one update is available. ("A software update is available. Do you
want to install it now?")
(1) Why?
(2) Why? This window is basically equivalent to a confirmation alert,
and it's a bit strange to present a confirmation alert without asking a
question. Normally that's done only if the preceding sentence is long,
and it isn't in this case.
** Changed in: update-manager (Ubuntu)
