Hi,
I found the same problem in 10.04: no notification of available updates.

$ ps ax | grep update-notifier
 1585 ? S 0:00 update-notifier
 2360 pts/0 S+ 0:00 grep --color=auto update-notifier

Restarting I get this result:

$ killall update-notifier
$ update-notifier &
[1] 2363
$ ** (update-notifier:2363): DEBUG: Skipping reboot required

I produced a reboot required notification in this way:
$ sudo /usr/share/update-notifier/notify-reboot-required

and the menu icon to restart it turned red. So I restarted from the same menu, confirming the dialog box.
But the problem was not resolved.
