[Bug 1052201] Re: update-notifier steals focus

When I run (under graphical environment) :

update-manager --no-focus-on-map

It works :
- start minimized
- when clicking on the icon in taskbar : it shows the main app as expeted

When I run (under tty1) :

DISPLAY=:0 update-manager --no-focus-on-map

It fails :
- start minimized
- but when clicking on the icon in taskbar : it doesn't show up as expected (same behaviour described in this bug report)

Don't know however if it's the good way to reproduce this bug.

Title:
  update-notifier steals focus

Status in “update-notifier” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Whenever update-notifier pops up about an update, it steals focus from
  whatever app is focused.

  It's annoying, 'cause it will interrupt your work, even though the
  window itself opens minimized and the results appears to be that the
  app lost focus without the notifier actually popping to the front.
