Hello Benedikt, or anyone else affected,

mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the

Title:
  [Additional Drivers] The Button "Restart" is triggering a shutdown

Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “software-properties” source package in Raring:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  == Impact ==
  "Restart" button in the Additional Drivers page is triggering a shutdown instead of a reboot.

  == Development Fix ==
  Fixed in saucy (0.92.18) by replacing a call:

      /usr/lib/indicator-session/gtk-logout-helper --shutdown
      --->
      /usr/lib/indicator-session/gtk-logout-helper --restart

  == Regression Potential ==
  None.

  == Original Description ==
  After I had installed the guestdriver for virtualbox I pressed the "Restart" button. This triggered a shutdown and not a reboot.

  == Test Case ==
  1. Install a driver using the Additional Drivers page.
  2. Press "Restart" button.
  3. The system should restart, not shutdown.
