[Bug 2008661] Re: Software Updater keeps popping up when there is no update

[Dávid Gardian]

I run ubuntu 22.04.2 and I have the same problem, it sometimes pops up
like every five minutes. I have tried to check manually using 'apt
update' and once there was a problem with google-earth repo and the
other time there were updates that were pending despite the updater
showing no updates... You might want to check the command line updates
for info...

Once 'apt update' is showing no updates the problem goes away ...
temporarily, so far

Also some grub packages were held back, but I think they make no
difference.

Title:
  Software Updater keeps popping up when there is no update

Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The software updater keeps popping up with the message "The software
  on this computer is up to date."

  I only expect to see this once, after a successful update, not again
  and again, because it requires no action. When I click "Ok" on it I
  expect that updater remains silent until it has a software update for
  me. This used to be the case, only now I find it alerting me
  repeatedly that there is no update.

  Running Ubuntu 20.04.5

  the last update included update-notifier:amd64 (3.192.30.11,
  3.192.30.16), update-notifier-common:amd64 (3.192.30.11, 3.192.30.16)
