The red triangle icon shows I have 3 updates available. When I look at what is there it says: "Status: upgradable" and "requested: no change." Of course even if I click "apply" and quit, those 3 remain and the red triangular icon remains on the bottom bar so I don't know if I really have upgradables or not. Kubuntu, Firefox 1.5.09

Re: Upgradable yet "No Change"
I've got the same thing. It doesn't have anything to do with Firefox, it's a system upgrade. The 3 packages are linux-headers-generic, linux-image-generic, and linux-restricted-modules-generic.
I think that you can just install with sudo apt-get, but I'm assuming that my system knows better than I do, so I shouldn't upgrade them.
This is what I get from sudo aptitude upgrade:
The following packages have been automatically kept back:
linux-image-generic linux-restricted-modules-generic
The following packages have been kept back:
linux-headers-generic
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3 not upgraded.
Need to get 0B of archives. After unpacking 0B will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n/?]
What do you guys think? Could I break my system by installing this stuff?
That red triangle won't go away, it's bugging me... -

For the meantime, all we can do is ignore the update notifier until the bug is resolved.Comment
