Ubuntu
update-manager package

update manager says update needed description leaves link to here

Asked by freddie sealey

I opened update manager to check for updates(8.10 intrepid) and descriptions of update has link for launchpad(apparently for those updates) as well as the usual place to download. I went ahead and done the download but get a hunch that I should check out the link. I get to that(cups) but I don't see a specific command line to copy. What should I do?

thanks

freddie your Ubuntu seem updated and upgraded...

Sometimes update manager wait for list of description changes and give to the user a link to launchpad site...
simply ignore it and go on...

Hope this helps
