No. What should happen is that the window should pop up behind other windows. In this way it won't steal focus or have accidental clicks. There would be several problems with it popping up in front of what the user is working on. If there are security updates, it won't wait for a week to show the window, and the window will call for attention -- meaning that it should pulse in the window switcher, to encourage the user to interact with the window and install the security updates. -- [Jaunty] Update Notifier icon would provide useful status information https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/332945 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
