That report and its fix only applies to the aptdaemon backend.  The
problem is still present in the synaptic backend, which this report
specifically refers to.

Title:
  sometimes sets dependency packages to manual install

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  Sometimes update-manager will set packages that are really automatic
  installs to manual install. This happens e.g. when a new dependency
  gets added. Because update-manager will run synaptic in non-
  interactive mode the information that this dependency got auto-
  installed is lost. This needs to be fixed.

  Check the other stuff that uses synaptic as its backend too (language-
  selector, gnome-app-install).
