2008-07-18 20:55:25 Philippe Saint-Pierre bug added attachment 'apt-check.test2' (Modified apt-check script made by mvo)
2008-07-18 20:56:45 Philippe Saint-Pierre description Note: I don't think this is the same as #28827, but I'm not totally sure. I'm using Ubuntu 8.04. I'm encountering a strange bug. Hovering the mouse over the update-notifier icon, the tooltip says (all the time, even after a reboot and "apt-get update" too) that there is 1 update available (with the security icon). However, when I click on it and open the update manager, it tells me I have 65 updates available (some security patches, recommended and proposed too) My system is fully working, so it's definitely not a rush priority, I just noticed that this was wrong. Mvo in #ubuntu-bugs helped me and he gave me a modified version of apt-check, to test things. Attached is the modifier version he made. Here is what this script returns when I run it : stpere@stpere-desktop:~/intelisoft$ python ./apt-check.test2 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done checking updates is marked install or marked upgrade 1;1stpere@stpere-desktop:~/intelisoft$ And also this with the -p parameter : danielle@danielle-desktop:~/intelisoft$ python ./apt-check.test2 -p Reading package lists...
