I'm using gnome.
Previously in Wheezy 7 and before there were packages called:
update-notifier
update-notifier-common
update-manager-gnome
update-manager
update-manager-core
update-manager
update-notifier
I always eschew those and remove them which is why I have the list.
But it sounds like you want them? In any case when I look now they
all say:
Transitional dummy package replacing update-notifier with GNOME-PackageKit
Therefore I assume those are all obsoleted now by GNOME-PackageKit.
Do you have GNOME-PackageKit installed?
If so then I assume that having replaced the update notifiers above
that it should be doing the notification. If not then it looks like a
deficiency of that gnome package that it has replaced the previous.
As I said, I eschew those and therefore can't tell if GNOME-PackageKit
notifies now or not. I can only presume that it does.
