Package: update-manager (0.42.2ubuntu22-11)

GNOME application that manages software updates

This is the GNOME software update manager. It checks for updates made available by Debian and third parties running Debian package repositories, and lets the user choose which to install.

Also included is a nice application, called "Software Properties", which lets you setup the sources from which your software packages will be acquired, and their cryptographic keys - by editing the /etc/apt/sources.list file, and managing the APT keyring.
