Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to
look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. There have been many
changes in Ubuntu since that time you reported the bug and your problem
may have been fixed with some of the updates. It would help us a lot if
you could test it on a currently supported Ubuntu version. When you test
it and it is still an issue, kindly upload the updated logs by running

Title:
  Fails to install updates if they are already downloaded

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  Update manager will not install updates that have allready been
  downloaded via another tool.

  Steps to reproduce:

  apt-get update
  apt-get -d -y dist-upgrade

  # Updated packages get downloaded but not installed.

  update-manager

  Update manager reports the new packages, but if you click "install
  updates" then nothing happens.

  Update manager works fine if it is used end to end.

  I am seeing this issue with the latest google-chrome release, but I
  have also seen it in the past with other updates.
