[Bug 1046563] Re: update-manager never appears on lubuntu precise

[Scott Cowles Jacobs]

Well, now that I have installed Lubuntu 13.04, I have the same problem
again, but the software updater app has changed, and I don't know yet
what to do.

In the Autostart section, under Known Applications, Update Notifier is
present, and the Enabled box is checked (I did not check it - it was
already checked). No updates have been presented as yet.

I will try to add "update-notifier" it to the "Manual autostarted
applications", as I have had to do for nm-applet and xscreensaver, and
we'll see...

I don't know if it has any option switches - I find nothing when I try
man or info...

-Scott

Title:
  update-manager never appears on lubuntu precise

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

Bug description:
  i have upgraded to 12.04.1 and I've recently noticed that update-
  manager no longer prompts to install updates.  Previous to 12.04.1, it
  was mostly popping up every day.

  To reproduce, run the cron script and see if update-manager comes up,
  which it won't.

  to fix the bug, update-manager should show updates when they are
  available.

  I believe that update-manager works properly on a default install of
  lubuntu 12.04.  however, once it runs and updates to the new update
  manager, update manager turns itself off.
