Comment 1 for bug 473280

Hi turlocktim, thank you for reporting this. I have patched this in the Lucid development branch in revision 385. It now reads:

Another useful package is apticron. apticron will configure a cron job to email an administrator information about any packages on the system that have updates available, as well as a summary of changes in each package.

I hope that is more clear. Please don't hesitate to report any more problems that you find.
