Open the app then immediately close it, problem solved. The updated thing is a little stupid, but I don't think Apple is going to change that anytime soon.
My problem is that, working in the offshore oil industry with very slow satellite internet (15 of us sharing a 500kb/s connection), we don't update apps at work. This means that when I get home I often have 60 or 70 apps to update. It gets irritating!
