Just an FYI in case your PC is using an intel video chip and you see three packages being offered for a security update:
xserver-common
xserver-xorg-core
xserver-xorg-dev
The version offered is 2:1.7.6-2ubuntu7.8, replacing 2:1.7.6-2ubuntu7.
Minecraft, Stellarium and all my other accelerated graphics apps crashed or locked up my desktop (IF I ran them from the menu. If I ran them from a Konsole I could close the Konsole, eliminating the hang.)
I reinstalled the previous version and restored my acceleration. I'll just live with the security hole, what ever it is.
To avoid this update refer to Rog131's post on "pinning" an application: http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/inde...1701#msg261701
