Why one might want to skip an update, or why one would like to see whether the available updates are genuinely new? If an update requires a reboot or otherwise seems dangerous, I will generally put off installing it. When I have done this, I am likely to miss potentially critical new updates because the "updates availabe" icon is there all the time, and it doesn't tell me whether the available updates are "new" or the ones I skipped already. If this is sufficient for removing the "incomplete" tag, please do. Otherwise, do you think you could provide more instructions for what sort of information would be useful? > Also please mention which version of Ubuntu you're running. 7.10 in particular, though not exclusively. I also have 6.06 and various versions in between on various installations. /* era */ -- If this were a real .signature, it would suck less.
