Hello,
Update-manager starts up every time I log in to my 10.04 installation. This is fine. What is not fine is that every time it starts, it asks me if I want to upgrade any of 50 CUPS-related packages. This is severely annoying, because I don't have a printer.
Now, given the interface provided, if I wanted to actually let it install the things I do need, I would first have to manually unselect all those CUPS packages, clearly too much work for nothing.
How may I tell the upgrade manager never to bother me again about CUPS? More generally, how do I tell it that certain packages are of no use to me?
Thanks,
Christian
