I am marking this bug as Invalid as update-manager uses aptdaemon as a backend (instead of synaptic, as it did when this bug got reported), so you will get the dialog with instructions to use the Broken filter only when using synaptic. Feel free to reopen if this still affects you, and please provide more details.
