Hello Bryce! I've tried to reproduce your issue using Ubuntu 8.10 but update-manager worked as expected! I clicked the orange icon of update-manager and let it download and install some updates. While it was downloading and installing the new packages, the icon stayed grey.
Does anybody else can confirm this issue? In the meantime I'm going to mark this report as incomplete! Thank you for suggesting this improvement. ** Changed in: update-manager (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- taskbar tab pulses unnecessarily https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/322152 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
