After updating apt-check to use the python-apt 0.7.93 API
I hadn't renamed the new version to the production version
('/usr/lib/update-notifier/apt-check'), but as soon as I did,
the orange ball popped up in the notification area a few seconds
later!
I am attaching a patch to apt-check that updates
apt-check to use the new API.
