Hi Israel

I found the package nagios-plugins-basic. This package is 2MB (included sizes 
of dependencies), but we only need a fraction of it; it's the command check_apt:
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_apt

Maybe you can repackage it in some way that it gets smaller? (I mean, strip the 
other scripts that we don't need)

The script does what it needs to do: display the number of packages to be 
upgraded. Maybe you can write a tool that checks if the string contains "0 
packages", and if it doesnt you can show some kind of message window?

Kind regards
