Update Manager is a graphical frontend for updating using apt (via
aptdaemon still). Nala likewise is an alternative frontend for apt.
There is nothing to do here.

We are always evaluating improvements to the apt user experience and had
discussion about Nala UX upstream but there are significant barriers to
what the UX can do.
