Title:
  Unable to change properties for automatic updates in software-
  properties-gtk

Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I can't seem to change any properties for automatic updates on my newly installed Ubuntu Jaunty 9.04 (I've tried rebooting and running it both as regular user, with sudo privileges and with sudo su), but it stays the same with "check for updates: Daily" and all other options not checked, but with a dot in it instead. Image of it can be seen here: http://bayimg.com/EADJKAAcP
  No errors are found in log files and I've tried running "sudo apt-get install --reinstall software-properties-gtk" without any improvement.

  To rule out the most common permission bug in software-properties-gtk
  with Ubuntu 9.04 I've run:

  sudo rm /var/spool/anacron/cron.daily

  sudo chmod 755 /etc/cron.daily/apt
