Lite Control Center - wrong date for software updates

[LL-user]

Hi,

Just successfully upgraded one of my computers to LL2.8
I usually don't use neither the Lite Control Center, nor the Install pdates GUI.

When starting the Lite Control Center to check the version, I realized that a date from last year was shown when the computer has been updated last. I only run an update minutes before that via CLI. Assuming it might be linked to the fact that I'm not using the GUI I followed the link of the date "Install Updates".
Still it shows the date from last year.

Recently done 3 upgrades to 2.8
Just re-checked, and updated all 3, about 10 items to update
Checked the LLC date, looks fine, Date: 2015-02-15
((Not UK Format, dd/mm/yyyy but that's not an issue))

Hi Dave,

Thanks for checking.

Did there just creep in a typo (2015 instead of 2016) or am I missing something here?
Mine shows 2015-11-01 and tells me it's time to update. Although I run an update almost every day.

Oooops  :-[  a Typo:

Not enough info at all, updating via cli can mean any number of front ends to apt.

How are you updating? Using what tool by name exactly, if possible share full commands used.

Have you ran updates by clicking on the text in control center?

Can you run the command

Code:

apt-config dump > apt-get_config.txt

And post the output.

PR been sent to control center repo. This issue should be solved from now on. Post triggers in apt are not updating the file as it should for alot of people.

Thanks, shaggytwodope, for chirping in.

I was just writing my response to your first message when I saw your last one.
Do you still need/want the output of apt-config dump?

Usually I update via

Code:

apt-get update && apt-get upgrade

in a root shell.

Beside that I work with aptitude and recently apt.
Only in rare occasions/ just for testing I ever use a GUI for package management.

I'd very much like the output of that command, for future reference.
