[Bug 1003950] Re: launcher does not show minimized update manager while clicked

 

This bug has been patched, but not actually "fixed". The bug is ages old
and it's time we as a community and the development team lay this issue
to rest once and for all with a redesigned mechanism for updating, code
and all. It's time we fix the solution to get Ubuntu going smoothly for
all rather than patch the tire that gets us a little while down the
road.

Attached is a hardinfo report on my machine. My machine, which is also
suspect to this issue.

Bug description:
  Update manager is showing up in the dock but I can click on the icon
  all day and nothing happens. Similarly if I do Super-S or Super-W it
  doesn't show up anywhere.

  Even if I alt-tab to the application nothing shows up. This happens
  only when update manager runs on its own. If I kill it and then launch
  it myself it comes to the foreground just fine.

  I'm not 100% sure whether this is a unity, compiz, or update-manager
  bug but so far my bet is on unity.
