Title:
  [LUCID] update-notifier no longer shows update icon even with
  auto_launch=false

Status in “update-notifier” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-notifier

  As of recent updates, update-notifier no longer shows the icon even
  after executing:

    gconftool -s --type bool /apps/update-notifier/auto_launch false

  It was bad enough when the highly controversial and widely criticized
  (Bug 332945) change was made to remove the notification icon by
  default, but now it is not showing up at all, even when the user
  explicitly wants it.
