2006-04-19 09:49:34 Michael Vogt update-manager: statusexplanation Thanks for your bugreport. I turned out that the problem is triggered for packages that travel between main and universe. The problem is that update manager dosn't use the section of the candidate version to figure if it is a main or a universe package but the Section of the current package. To fix this, python-apt should always use the section of the candidate (unless otherwise told).

2008-11-04 18:35:09 Michael Vogt description Description of the problem: Certain packages never show changelog items in update-manager. Steps to reproduce: 1. Start update manager with an old version of lifrerea installed. 2. Click on lifrea update in the top list. 3. Make sure Details are shown and click on the Changes tab. Expected result: Changes tab to display a changelog of changes between lifrea 1.0.7-1ubuntu1 and liferea 1.0.9-0ubuntu1. Actual result: Changes area says "The list of changes is not available yet. Please try again later." for weeks on end. Additional information: The same thing happens for the following packages: fastjar libnspr4 libnss3 liferea-gtkhtml liferea-mozilla linux-restricted-modules linux-restricted-modules-common nvidia-glx-legacy qemu xserver-xgl fastjar is a real oddball and simply displays nothing (no message at all) and libsigc++2.0 seems to hang forever saying "Downloading the list of changes..."
