Feature request: Update Manager - "Download and Install automatically" Option for other packages
I would be great if the Update Manager provides the option to auto-update also "other updates". For security updates this option is available but not for normal packages. This seems unbalanced.
I personally have no way to evaluate if an update for a standard package is good or not and always install on my Desktop machines all updates. The constantly display popup is annoying for me. It sometimes reminds me of the Window update popup which also was annoying.
Also Firefox and Chrome are now auto-updating themself so this seems a big trend. I know that I can install another package or setup an cron job to do these updates but I think this option should also be available in the Update Manager to be more accessible.
I tried posting this feature request to the Ubuntu dev list, but it was moderated out.
