@ChristianB: I guess you swapped the files in that patch: looks like
you're *removing* (an unexisting) --no_info_fetch option instead of
adding it.

Also, since it looks like --no_info_fetch would also have a side-effect
of disabling project list fetching, I'm not sure if this is the best
approach. Besides, I guess the user can revert that using Manager's GUI
(Tools > Options > Notice reminder interval)

I think the best approach would be to disable version notices *in code*,
and leave Manager GUI / --no_info_fetch for *other* notices. At least
for versions handled by a package management system, like Ubuntu/Debian
