Hi
The version you are running ( 0.1.2pre4 ) is a beta release for 
testing and hence does not have any updates available for it.

If you just want the message to go away then log in to the command 
line and run:
	touch /var/ipcop/patches/available

which updates the time stamp on the files which would contain the 
list of available patches (if any existed).
