Every day - some days more than once - a Software Updater appears in my left side bar. Is this normal in Ubuntu? Do I really have every day to see this and restart my computer? I don't want to miss the updates recommended for Ubuntu, but too often seems to be useless.
Is there a way to configure for updater to automatically install the most important packages? Or only search for the real important ones? I am basically a Java developer who will use Eclipse, MySql and Tomcat with some frameworks.
