Updates configuration tab

Checking for updates is configured to happen daily (see attached screenshot), but updates are only flagged about once a week.

Manually checking for updates using the Update Manager does not identify any pending updates, even when they exist.  However, issuing 'sudo apt-get update' in a shell causes the update manager to flag them.  Update Manager then applies the updates normally when directed to do so.

Maybe this is a configuration issue, but it would seem pointless to check for updates and then ignore them.

Please report to kubuntu, there's not much I can do there.
Comment 2 Terry Coles 2016-08-23 12:21:32 UTC
OK.  Will do.  However, I'd like to mention that I reported the bug here by clicking on the 'Report bug...' menu item in the Update Manager.

Someone somewhere should make that point to Kubuntu, instead of KDE; presumably that someone is in the Kubuntu team.
