I've gamin. But if you're using gamin to monitor
/var/lib/update-notifier/dpkg-run-stamp, it's normal it doesn't work. See bug #11624

I did "apt-get update". There's 9 updates according to dist-upgrade. The tooltip
doesn't change (I've been waiting more than 2 minutes).
I did "apt-get update" before and there was no updates at that time. The icon
did not disappear.
