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.
