[Bug 985735] Re: update-manager restarts KDM and interrupts update process

[Julien Aubin]

Note that I could reproduce the issue on 2 different computers :
- A Dell Inspiron 1525 (C2Duo, Intel GMA X3100)
- An Athlon XP 1800+ computer, with a GeForce FX 5600.

All the computers were running KDE started from KDM, but one update was
done using Unity desktop while the other one was using KDE. The error
occurs after we're prompted to restart KDM after libc6 update.

Title:
  update-manager restarts KDM and interrupts update process

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When updating to 12.04 LTS from Oneiric, the update-manager process
  prompts to restart KDM. The problem is that it actually restarts the
  whole X server, interrupting the update process. The only way to work
  around the issue is to finish the installation manually, with aptitude
  for example.
