Bug#521832: update-manager: udpate-[manager|notifier] for kde

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf <rrs@researchut.com>]

Package: update-manager
Version: 0.68.debian
Severity: wishlist


Hi,

I noticed that Ubuntu is the upstream for both, update-manager and
update-notifier.

Ubuntu also ships update-manager-kde and update-notifier-kde.
Would it be possible to package them for Debian KDE also ?

I also noticed that the version in Debian is quite old. (Probably that's
because a lot of code change is required, because Debian doesn't have
frequent point releases like Ubuntu does).

Thanks,
Ritesh
