Public bug reported:
Rationale:
After upgrading from 12.10 to 13.04, my ~15 PPAs have been disabled. Reenabling
them (they are automatically set to target 'raring') and launching
udate-manager, it simply says "Failed to download repository information",
"Check your internet connection.". There is no indication of what is going
wrong, and the next intuitive idea (~$ gksudo update-manager) prints nothing
while giving the same error popup.
A quick '~$ aptitude update' reveals that one of the PPAs simply doesn't
have a 'raring' target.
Proposal:
update-manager should print it's current activities to stdout when invoked from
the command line. Sure, one can/should implement error popups for every which
possibility, but command line output is a fairly essential fallback.
** Affects: update-manager (Ubuntu)
