It's now been 3 full days, and I have not been notified about any
available updates yet. A manual run of Software Updater now shows 4.3
MB available. So it does not seem that the delay is due to phased
updates, but that the bug 1046563 is still active here.
@bapoumba, you seemed to have the same problem. Any new observations?
And of course, there is also the other issue in the discussion at
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2222325 -- the discrepancy
between updates found by update-manager and by Synaptic or apt-get
upgrade -- and I don't know of a bug report in connection with that. I
have not myself seen this second issue. Apt-get upgrade current offers
4.3 MB of upgrades, just as Software Updater does.

OK, I'm in good position to test whether this is the old bug at work
or simply phased updates working properly. I just ran Software
Updater manually and it identified 683 KB of updates available for the
Lubuntu Base. I did not install the updates, so within 2.5 days I
should be notified that there are updates available.

the iputils packages are showing up on that page.
Thank you much, I always forget about phase updates..

You may just be encountering "phased updates" for the first time
in this version:
http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2013/08/phased-updates-to-start-rolling-out-for-ubuntu-13-04
It takes 2.5 days for a new phased update to roll out to all
users. Apt-get bypasses the delays and gets everything that can
be updated.

Subject: Re: 14.04 seems subject to bug 1046563 with
update-manager/notifier
Hello,
thanks for the email, I was about to post one.
First off, I'd like to apologize for silently joining the list a
few weeks back. So hello, you'll mainly find me on the forums :)
I've added a few things to the forums thread, and linked the bug
report here
https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/update-manager/main
<https://code.launchpad.net/%7Eubuntu-core-dev/update-manager/main>
I've also added "trusty" to the title.
Now I'm not that familiar with update-manager (software-updater)
and not sure where to look at to troubleshoot and add useful
information.
To me, the biggest issue is the discrepancy between apt-get
upgrade and software updater.
Would anyone know ?
Have a good day !

I don't find the issue in the Lubuntu or Ubuntu 14.04 Release
Notes, but it seems like 14.04 is subject to
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/1046563
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/1046563>,
reported for 12.04, in which automatic updating fails.
I was noticing that I wasn't being prompted to install
software updates. I ran Software Updater (update-manager)
manually once and got a big batch of updates. I ran it
manually again today and it identified another batch that I
could get. It included updates for Software Updater, so
perhaps that will fix the problem.
There is a big discussion of the problem at
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2222325
<http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2222325>. And
beyond the notification problem, a number of people report
seeing big differences between the updates identified by
update-manager and Synaptic.
