Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: screen-profiles
I am thrilled with the work Dustin Kirkland has done to provide useful
screen profiles. One of the features is that the hardstatus line on the
bottom will show the number of available package updates in white text
against a red background.
After manually installing all available updates via aptitude full-
upgrade, that status does not change until apt-check is called again.
>From perusing the updates-available script in /usr/share/screen-
profiles/bin/, it seems that it will update hourly.
Could a hook be added to dpkg or a postinstall preference configured for
apt that would run updates-available / apt-check and clear the status
contemporaneously with the update?
