Comment 2 for bug 55172

Hm... was this meant to have been fixed in the version published 2006-08-11 16:03:16 EDT 1.9.3-1ubuntu2? If so, I don't think it's been solved yet. I've been seeing weird problems with update-manager which I believe are attributable to this bug. After I log in and run update-manager the first time, when I click the Check button, the update-manager desensitizes, and gksu attempts to launch, but its window never appears. I must kill gksu from the GNOME System Monitor for things to start working right. After that, everything's peachy.
