description |
The update-manager GUI lists a number of "Transitional dummy packages" available for update. There doesn't seem to be any additional information available about these packages through the UI. As a user I have no idea what I am supposed to do with them.
I suggest grouping the "transitional dummy package" under the "Ubuntu base" section in update-manager, so that they are not displayed to the end user by default.
To reproduce:
1) Run Software Updater from the dash
2) Look at the list of updates in the "Details of updates" list
