Yes, this is a big improvement.

I would also suggest if the above (improved) statement is true and so
displayed then statements like the following are
misleading and should not be displayed. That is a statement like the
following should only be displayed if a package(s)
is(are) to be upgraded and perhaps then only list those that would be
updated and not all the user may have installed.
