In Ubuntu 13.10, almost every alternate day, I get an update for ubuntu-base.



What does ubuntu-base mean?
What packages does it change?
Is it safe to skip those updates?



This is the Ubuntu base I have been talking about.

The Ubuntu Base you are talking about is a way to aggregate the updates available for ubuntu-desktop.



I run Xubuntu - when updates are available for me - I see Xubuntu Base.



Further information on this can be found here - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareUpdates#Expanded_presentation_of_updates



Previously Update Manager listed all updates available - it could, and can, at times be a long list. It's just a method of simplifying what you see when Update Manager starts.
