Update frequency setting in Kubuntu 18.04
2
Opening Software Sources in Kubuntu 18.04 I have selected only important and recommended updates, set the checking for updates only every two weeks and only notify.
But I still get updates notifications all the time, sometimes even more than once a day.
Am I missing something?

I happened to follow the link and I am reading now. I quote relevant text here: "Software properties setting is a holdover from the old apt based update mechanism. The icon/updater you see uses package kit and frequencies for checking updates are coded in, without user facing options. :/"

But the last comment dated 2018-12-06 in the forum thread reads: "Hey, looks like the dev has already fixed it, wow! phabricator.kde.org/D17375" P.S.: Following this link noted the fix is included in 5.14.

@clearkimura - That must mean that update frequency settings is not available. Any other way to set frequency except that GUI? - As forfix is included in 5.14: 5.14 is already in 18.10, but I will stay with the LTS.
