Bug Description

software-properties-gtk 0.92.17, Ubuntu 13.04

1. In the "Updates" tab, open the "When there are security updates" menu.
2. Open the "When there are other updates" menu.

What you see:
1. There's an option to download security updates automatically.
2. There's no option to download non-security updates automatically.

What you should see:
2. An option to download non-security updates automatically.

Bug 370795 shows that this option used to exist.

<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareUpdates#settings>: "The “Download updates automatically:” menu should contain options for “None”, “Security updates”, and “All updates”."
