Binary package hint: update-manager

-------------------
Summary: update-manager does not allow the download/installation of updated packages from "unauthenticated" sources.  Previous versions of update-manager have always given an option to continue anyway.
-------------------

As part of my list of updates this morning I had one from a third party
(Squeezebox Server from debian.slimdevices.com), which is not key-
signed.

When I selected OK to upgrade all of them, I got a message box "Requires
installation of untrusted packages" (The action would require the
installation of packages from unauthenticated sources.). The only option
is 'Close' and there is no indication of what to do to authorise this!
It prevented me upgrading the other packages too, until I'd unchecked
the squeezeboxserver package.

I guess I'll have to do it via apt-get.

I'm running 10.10, fully up-to-date, and update-manager version 1:0.142.20.
