In Intrepid, at least, the "System Restart Required" task bar applet appears while in the process of updating packages (via the Update Manager applet).
Clicking on the restart applet will prompt the user to reboot. This is a valid bug report in that respect. This restart behavior is dangerous. The restart applet should be disabled while the update manager (or dpkg / apt) is busy. The same logic could be applied to the normal Logout / Shutdown / Restart launchers to prevent or confirm the action. -- Shutdown durring update killed ubuntu / update killed mouse https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214906 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
