Similarly if I do Super-S or Super-W it doesn't show up anywhere. Even if I alt-tab to the application nothing shows up. This happens only when update manager runs on its own. If I kill it and then launch it myself it comes to the foreground just fine. I'm not 100% sure whether this is a unity, compiz, or update-manager bug but so far my bet is on unity. =====Original Report===== Bug #877444 is showing again in latest updates, please re-open it.
