Issue #617 has been updated by Alex Sims.

The test sh -x /usr/lib/update-manager/update-refresh.sh is not valid. I see this every few days, is probably invoked randomly and then fails, see the rolls bit at the end.

This is from OI build 147.

Your "cron" job on vps5
/usr/lib/update-manager/update-refresh.sh

produced the following output:

/usr/lib/python2.6/vendor-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py:57: GtkWarning: could not open display
 warnings.warn(str(e), _gtk.Warning)
GConf Error: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ for information. (Details -  1: Not running within active session)
/usr/bin/pm-updatemanager:93: GtkWarning: file gtkicontheme.c: line 317: assertion `GDK_IS_SCREEN (screen)' failed
 self.icon_theme = gtk.icon_theme_get_default()

This script is setup by default in the root's crontab. Sorry, no time to look through this script to see what is broken ... hope someone else has some cycles to do so. If this script is no longer needed, it should be removed from default install.
