Downloads updates automatically when Automatic Updates is disabled #223

What Happened?

I have Automatic Updates disabled and perform them manually, because I don't like having to reboot to install them.

Yet, it's still downloading updates automatically, and even prompting to install them in the "Shut Down..." dialog (with checkbox ticked by default).

Screenshot of elementary Settings, System plug, that says: Restart to install pending updates

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Disable Automatic Updates in System Settings.
  2. Reboot, to be sure the change is picked up.
  3. When updates are available, go to System Settings, then System.

Expected Behavior

It can display available updates, but never download them automatically; let alone prompt to install them on reboot. I have disabled Automatic Updates for a reason.
