Package: update-manager Version: 0.42.2ubuntu22-11 Severity: normal update-manager (and -notifier) don't have a man page. This is especially annoying as those programs cannot be started as 'ordinary user' from the command line, but rather have to be started as 'gksu update-manager', which is not obvious for first-time users.
The man page should also tell how to access the settings. Especially to kde users it is not obvious, that update-manager's settings are changed by running a seperate program called 'Software Properties' from the kde --> settings menue. It might be helpful, if the man page would also describe how to acces the program from the menu. In kde it is kde -> Settings -> Update Manager. [The description in update-manager's help screens just applies to gnome, but I guess that's another bug. ] Thanks, Johannes -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-5-686 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages update-manager depends on: ii libgnome2-perl 1.040-1 Perl interface to the GNOME librar ii lsb-release 3.1-23.2etch1 Linux Standard Base version report ii python 2.4.4-2 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-apt 0.6.19 Python interface to libapt-pkg ii python-glade2 2.8.6-8 GTK+ bindings: Glade support ii python-gnome2 2.12.4-6 Python bindings for the GNOME desk ii python-gnupginterface 0.3.2-9 Python interface to GnuPG (GPG) ii python-support 0.5.6 automated rebuilding support for p ii synaptic 0.57.11.1+b1 Graphical package manager update-manager recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
