Ubuntu 8.04 Update Manager lagging?
I keep thinking it strange that the Update Manager in Ubuntu 8.04 has been surprisingly quiet. In Debian Lenny, I've got updates to do all the time.
And in a new Ubuntu install, you'd expect a lot of updates. A lot.
So even though I didn't see the icon at the top of the screen, I opened the Update Manager anyway and checked for updates.
I had 57 to install, which I'm now doing. When was Ubuntu going to tell me about it?
I'll hang back for a week or so and see if it's my imagination, or if the Update Manager in Ubuntu is either not working properly or is configured to not automatically inform me of updates.
Otherwise, as I wrote earlier today, Ubuntu 8.04 is performing very well, and I'm more inclined all the time to stick with it.
