Availability of updates for icedove and Java seems to have triggered this again, even with my patched gnome-settings-daemon (with commit 7901a81c0736c backported). I had removed aptdaemon, synaptic, update-notifier etc. but I did notice that I hadn't purged update-notifier-common, which left this behind: root@cardamom:~# cat /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10periodic APT::Periodic::Update-Package-Lists "1"; APT::Periodic::Download-Upgradeable-Packages "1"; APT::Periodic::AutocleanInterval "0"; APT::Periodic::Unattended-Upgrade "0"; so perhaps that's involved?
