I've only found 2 relatively recent threads on update issues, one was yours with no responses and the other of the 9 replies it had a couple of them were yours. Not saying the problem doesn't exist or shouldn't be fixed, but doesn't seem as wide spread as you are making it out to be. Of course people could just not be talking about it on here. Hopefully the issue, whatever it may be that is causing it, gets resolved soon for you and others though!
