[Jerry]

Maybe you installed something that installed these 2 packages...

Most likely. As previously stated, we don't offer this pop up notification out-of-the-box.

I don't have the "ubuntu-release-upgrader-core update-manager-core." installed by default...

Maybe you installed something that installed these 2 packages...

I don't know. Or MAYBE it's installed on 64-bit system by default (I run 32-bit).

I just ran Install Updates, and some of the things Zead listed were included, particularly "ubuntu-release-upgrader-core update-manager-core."

[Jerry]

So I'm not sure if it is a good idea to install on LL.

It is not a good idea.

[Zead]

It needs "update-notifier" package. But it also installs "ubuntu-release-upgrader" and update-manager, and some other things.

So I'm not sure if it is a good idea to install on LL.

@Scott(0)
I think you are probably correct,
It can check, but the results of the check trigger something, that we don't have.

I think I remember seeing this on Linux Mint(Cinnamon).?

[Scott]

Hi Torreydale

I've been using LL for ~2 years and I can't ever recall a software updates popup. I've wondered about the 'automatically check for updates' option myself and my best guess is it's a backend that would tie into a feature that LL just doesn't use. I could, of course, be completely wrong.

[torreydale]

Bueller?

[torreydale]

I thought the popup was generated from this tab of the Software & Updates tool:

[Jerry]

We don't offer that feature, so not sure why you saw it.

[torreydale]

I used to see a popup notifying me that software updates are available.  I don't see that anymore on either of my PCs.  I know how to do it manually, but I am concerned for the people I helped get Linux Lite running.
