I was also confused by this change in behaviour, even though I knew about Phased Updates. I don't often update with apt now and had just forgotten about them.
I support the solution of listing phased updates separately. I do not think the translation issue should hold this back. If apt has not internationalisation capability, then presumably other apt text such as "The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:" is not translated. Nor is the "News about significant security updates..." message is not translated either (and that contains a joke about Reddit, which is even more likely to confuse non-English speakers). And many non-English speakers will be very familiar with the process of copying a message they don't fully understand into a search engine to get more information and/or translation (maybe not an option for server users but we can expected them to use man apt). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1988819 Title: When apt keeps back packages due to phased updates, it should say nothing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1988819/+subscriptions -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
