Public bug reported:
I've noticed that around a third of the times there's an update
available update-manager informs about it, when I click on the icon in
the tray it opens up the program which fetches the list of available
updates but when I press "install updates" the update-manager fails to
bring up the password prompt and the only way to get rid of the instance
is by going through the terminal, ps-ef |grep update manager and kill
the pid. So far it has always worked on the second try.
If the prompt for the password manages to launch as it should then the
rest of the installation works just fine.
** Affects: update-manager (Ubuntu)
