Thanks for the report. Two questions

1. How did you install BleachBit? From a .deb from this web site, from the Puppy repo, from source, etc?

2. Please click Help - System information, copy it, and paste it here. (The paths and processes are probably not relevant, so you may remove those if you want.)

1)
used puppy's Package manager(PPM) lucid as only repo
and according to package logs, it downloaded and installed from file:
"bleachbit_0.8.7-1_all_ubuntu1004.deb"

2)
on different system at moment will post later

I did a bit of checking, and the best I can tell (especially without the URL of that package and without the System Information paste), whoever put that in the repo changed the filename but left the contents old?

When you get the paste and URL of the package, I will check more.

Meanwhile, I recommend downloading the latest BleachBit from this site

But, now that i read the correct logs..:(
i didn't as i had believed use the PPm(not available there)
i had downloaded it from:
http://katana.oooninja.com/bleachbit/sf/bleachbit_0.8.7-1_all_ubuntu1004...

what im thinking is that "my" Puppy Linux 5.2a maybe a bit closer to 'Natty' than 'Lucid'

and according to sha256sum that is the file that was installed

as downloaded and compared to :
http://superb-sea2.dl.sourceforge.net/project/bleachbit/bleachbit/0.8.7/...

# sha256sum bleachbit_0.8.7-1_all_ubuntu1004.deb

As of now, BleachBit should no longer show an update is available when an update is no longer available. This was fixed on the web host, so the latest BleachBit (version 0.8.7) doesn't need updated to be fixed.
