I personally have installed Lucid since 4 months on 2 machines and since then NEVER seen any update notification or any pop-up. "apt-get update" seems to be run regularly, but also if security updates are pending I don't get any notification.

My personal solution is to run 'apt-get upgrade' from time to time - considering a cron job to avoid forgetting it.

This is a SECURITY ISSUE !!!
