Update notifier 1.4.4-1

[seadog]

After update to 1.4.4-1 update-notifier shows updates but when "Install updates using Synaptic" is clicked, it now only reloads the updates and doesn't open Synaptic.

I have removed it completely and reinstalled it to no avail. Same results on two computers using KDE 32 bit.

Same issue here ....

Happened to me on one computer. I didn't reinstall. I just opened the update-notifier window and selected Exit update-notifier. I then opened Synaptic manually and updated. After closing Synaptic, I started update-notifier again from the menu.

I have another issue: after a while i got a lot of update-notifier tray icons so i put this line on the kill_existing() function in the /usr/bin/update-notifier-launcher file:

for i in `ps -fea|grep update|grep yad|awk '{print $2}'`; do kill -9 $i; done

and i add more seconds to the "sleep" command in the 10th line for checking updates after connect to my wifi.

You do nothing, and get a lot of update-notifier tray icons ?

Unbelievable

sent update to dropbox, and thanks for your suggestions...

add delay function to choose your own time to wait until connect repos...
You can choose between 10 seconds and 60 seconds

Yup, you are one sharp cookie, Leiche.  Thanks for that.
