Bug Description

Binary package hint: update-manager

Running a current jaunty, I get no notification icon about available updates.
Only if I run update-manager manually, I see that there are new packages available.

So, the one that this is a duplicate of, 332945, has a lot of arguing and politics in it. I don't really care what the politics are at this moment. I just want to know where I get notified of updates given that it's not happening in the notification area.

OK. So I set the interval to 0 and restarted update-notifier and still
don't see anything in the notification area. update-manager shows a
whole slew of updates available.
