[Gllug] apt upgrade notification

[SteveC]

I'd like apt to mail me when upgrades are available so cron.daily would   
run apt-get update and then some method of determining whether there are  
new packages. Maybe if apt-get --dry-run -u upgrade was longer than x 
number of lines then I'd get a mail, or something...? Any ideas?

BTW merry xmas!

have fun,
