This silly bug lives on into intrepid and (I presume) jaunty. I really think its priority should be increased as it is very poor wording/options in a place where clarity is very important.

Can we clarify one thing. Is the reality that:

1. The text is misleading.

or

2. The text is exactly describing the real situation -- that you can't download all updates and automatically install security ones.

My experience is that if you choose "install security updates without confirmation", you end up with big bunch of the other updates which still need downloading. This suggests that [2] is the situation and the text is simply telling the truth.

If the text is misleading, surely a fix to the wording would be pretty trivial?
