This version of aptdaemon was never in the official Ubuntu archive, and in fact the url you've provided is a PPA. > The fix-release version in #41 above is: > > aptdaemon (1.1.1+bzr982-0ubuntu16.2) yakkety; > > This has not shown up in my repositories yet, and I am wondering about the > version > numbering... surely the version I have is technically a higher version than > the release > (16 being higher than 2) This version of aptdaemon is still going through the phased-updates process is only being presented to 20% of users who use update-manager to update their packages. If you use apt-get install aptdaemon and have -proposed enabled you'd get the new version of aptdaemon. > In Synaptic, it shows the 16.2 version in Versions, as well as mine (and also > the assumed > original 16), but Package->Force Version, selecting 16.2 has no effect on the > version, and > "Apply" is ghosted. > Even unchecking the Other Software repository and Reloading the package list > did not change anything. > Perhaps it is because there are three other aptdaemon-related packages with > the same version > string as aptdaemon (aptdaeman-date, and two python3 pkgs.) that perhaps > would not work if aptdaemon changed its version. The version of aptdaemon you have installed, 1.1.1+bzr982-0ubuntu16.16.10.1~yakkety1.0, from some other repository is in fact greater than the one in the official Ubuntu archive for yakkety. You'll actually want to "downgrade" to the version of aptdaemon from the archive. -- Brian Murray -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1623856 Title: Scrolled Windows in update-manager are too small to read To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/aptdaemon/+bug/1623856/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
