In case someone knowledgeable notices this - how likely is it that a developer adapts the said functionality (to adept_notifier and adept_updater) from any of the other package managers that do the right thing? (Not that it would help me in Dapper, but I'd just like to know.)
The notifier is a useful tool, but this issue does somewhat diminish its utility. Having a package held back, I have the exclamation mark constantly in my tray. -- 'adept_notifier' is not aware of packages in "held" state https://launchpad.net/bugs/72806 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
