Bug Description

I'm testing the Edubuntu amd64 daily build version 20080201 and had just booted the Live CD and noticed that update-notifier indicates that a package manager is working and has been stuck there for the past 32 minutes.

The update-notifier icon was orange and mousing over it showed "a package manager is working". I think it is supposed to be grey when one is working in background.

This bug was fixed in the package update-notifier - 0.70.5

---------------
update-notifier (0.70.5) hardy; urgency=low

  * src/update-notifier.c:
    - delay statup checks for updates etc for 60s to avoid
      slowing down the desktop startup (for Seb128)
    - fix typo in monitored directories (LP: #188201)
  * src/update.c, src/crash.c, src/hooks.c:
    - ensure to not show notification if the icon is already
      gone (LP: #187744)
  * src/hal.c:
    - setup sensible default actions (LP: #186595)
    - do not keep the cdrom detected window on top of
      other windows (LP: #186593) and make sure it appears
      in the taskbar
  * src/reboot.c:
    - use bigger icon (LP: #149380)
