Public bug reported:
1) Release: 13.04 (Raring)
2) Package version: Software Updater 1:0.186
3) What I expected:
When I got the message from the Software-Updater that a restart was now required, having clicked on the Restart button I expected the computer would actually do a restart.
4) What happened instead:
I got the shiny new transparent prompt with two big square buttons -- giving a choice over whether to Restart or Shutdown. If a person wants to restart as inferred by the previous restart button they clicked, they have to push this new restart button also, ie the select restart twice to restart computer.
What should happen:
Of course they are given the extra option here (of shutting down), but if we really want to give them two options then both options should be visible on the original prompt. I suspect it may be desired to simply bypass the second prompt once the user has pushed restart and avoid any shutdown prompt.
Unfortunately I forgot to get a screenshot of this one sorry.
