Upgrade notifier tray icon
--------------------------
This is a small tray icon that backgrounds itself and checks for
upgrades. It does nothing more. It must be ensured by other means
(like a cron job) that a regular "apt-get update" is done. This is
ensured by installing a option into /etc/apt/apt.conf.d to trigger a
cron update script. It uses FAM to monitor /var/lib/apt/lists/* and
/var/lib/update-notifier/dpkg-run-stamp. If they change it updates it's
status.
Needs libgnomeui2.0-dev and libhal-dev to build and gksu to run.
Based on ideas of Matt Zimmerman und Jeff Waught. Tray example from
Lukas Lipka <lukas@pmad.net>. Lot's of cleanups from Michiel Sikkes.
Thanks!
