My impression was that at least in Debian based systems (Ubuntu and others), it updates with apt now?

[hashhar]

Yes. It uses apt but do you realise that you didn't install it using APT? You used plain dpkg but it now registers itself with APT (I think using something similar to a PPA) so that you can autoupdate.

EDIT: Sorry if this sounded accusative. Wasn't meant that way.

Would be fun trying to autoupdate deb packages though.
