Updates should not be shown using an icon in the menu bar, for reasons discussed extensively in bug 332945. The only effect of porting update-notifier to application indicators would be to take up developer time on showing updates using an icon in the menu bar. Therefore, this is a duplicate.

I have unmarked duplicates of this report which were about apport-gtk. Though neither of them should be sitting in the menu bar, apport-gtk is not update-notifier.
