I just tried today on a xenial long-running container that I have and there was one update available: vlan. byobu correctly flagged it with a red "1!" in the status bar after a few seconds.
I then upgraded (dist-upgrade), and a few seconds later (less than 10) then "1!" disappeared. byobu 5.106-0ubuntu1 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1604750 Title: Byobu not clearing update numbers after updates To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/byobu/+bug/1604750/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
