Ubuntu – why is ubuntu lsb_release being called every 30 seconds

topUbuntu

I'm running ubuntu server, and I was staring at "top". lsb_release seems to pop up every 30 seconds – which in turn calls apt-cache. I don't really know where to start looking for the source of this issue, is it part of some update checking mechanism or something? Does anyone have any idea why ubuntu needs to know it's release version as often as it is looking?

Perhaps you have auto-updates enabled?
