And here is the *current* settings which *have been active* while I've got that dialog window ( on the previous attachment: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/413195181/update-manager-screenshot-with- ignored-settings.png ) with notification about updates, in the attachment.
In fact, while I've got that window popped-up, the (probably?) related systemd services & timers *have been disabled* (by `mask') as well, manually, by me, a couple of days ago. Here is the current state of them: $ sudo systemctl status apt-daily.service ● apt-daily.service Loaded: masked (/dev/null; bad) Active: inactive (dead) $ sudo systemctl status apt-daily.timer ● apt-daily.timer Loaded: masked (/dev/null; bad) Active: inactive (dead) Warning: apt-daily.timer changed on disk. Run 'systemctl daemon-reload' to reload units. $ sudo systemctl status apt-daily-upgrade.service ● apt-daily-upgrade.service Loaded: masked (/dev/null; bad) Active: inactive (dead) $ sudo systemctl status apt-daily-upgrade.timer ● apt-daily-upgrade.timer Loaded: masked (/dev/null; bad) Active: inactive (dead) Warning: apt-daily-upgrade.timer changed on disk. Run 'systemctl daemon-reload' to reload units. $ I didn't have time to learn what and how they do so I just disable them (by `sudo systemctl mask') since I prefer to control update maintenance completely by myself, when it's convenient for my time and not PC's time. I thought that it should be enough but I was really surprised that it didn't do the trick. The next step will be wiping everything which is related to apt/update from /etc/cron.* directories. P.S. I really don't and just can't understand why `Software Updater' has nearly the same `design' and `usability experience' just like Windows 10 update service nowadays, with a complete ignore of user settings, preferences, focus and time. ** Attachment added: "update manager's ignored settings" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/1817559/+attachment/5242392/+files/ignored_settings.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1817559 Title: update-manager ignores its own settings completely To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/1817559/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
