Bug description:
  When I click the Reload button in update-manager, the "Downloading
  package information" progress dialog takes a few seconds to start,
  with the main window's widgets disabled. In this case, I switch to
  another application, and the download progress steals the window
  focus. If I switch again to another window, the "building dependency
  tree" progress dialog steals focus again.

  This is a bug in the metacity window manager.
