I recently installed the VLC media player and since then my updates icon on the top right of my screen has changed from a red or yellow triangle with an exclamation mark in it, to an orange star with a down-pointing arrow. It says I have updates but they all are in teh form of 'lib...'. Is this normal or have I done something to mess up the updates system?

This is unrelated to installing vlc and is normal...i don't know why the different icon sometimes, possibly the nature of the update...ie security updates, or possibly include distro upgrade.
