ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.04 Package: update-manager 1:0.186.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.8.0-27.40-generic 3.8.13.4 Uname: Linux 3.8.0-27-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia ApportVersion: 2.9.2-0ubuntu8.3 Architecture: amd64 Date: Mon Aug 12 16:54:12 2013 GsettingsChanges: b'com.ubuntu.update-manager' b'first-run' b'false' b'com.ubuntu.update-manager' b'launch-time' b'1376340348' b'com.ubuntu.update-manager' b'show-details' b'true' b'com.ubuntu.update-manager' b'window-height' b'432' b'com.ubuntu.update-manager' b'window-width' b'520' InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-08-01 (11 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 13.04 "Raring Ringtail" - Release amd64 (20130424) MarkForUpload: True PackageArchitecture: all ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: update-manager UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) [Impact] It is possible for update-manager to display an empty update list, or for the size of files to download to be greater than the sum of the sizes of the updates listed in the update list. This can happen when the random number generated by update-manager for a phased update is greater than the Phased-Update-Percentage for a package, so that package is elected not to be installed. The package is removed from the update list but still ends up being installed. Subsequently, updates aren't really being phased at all. [Test Case] 1. install raring 2. add 'Update-Manager::Never-Include-Phased-Updates "True";' to /etc/apt/apt.conf 3. update the system 4. ensure bamfdaemon version 0.4.0daily13.06.19~13.04-0ubuntu1 is not installed 5. comment out Never-Include-Phased-Updates 6. run update-manager and observe an empty update list but that files will be downloaded ("%s will be downloaded" dialog). With the package from -proposed you should receive a dialog indicating that the system is up to date.
