It turns out someone filed a bug report about this; it has had no replies. But forum posts elsewhere suggest a reason for the problem (which has been observed by people using Edgy as well as Feisty - common feature is installation of SlimDevices Slimserver): "I get a software update notification for libpath-class-perl 1.5.1 > libpath-class-perl 1.5.1 and it never actually updates. I assume there is some file diff between the lib provided by slimdevices and the file in the Universe repository since when I commented out the slimdevices repo the notification remained. I commented out the Universe repo in synaptic and the update note finally goes away." Blocking the Universe repo sounds a bit drastic. Does anyone have any thoughts about other options? -- Ian -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
