[Bug 1024687] [NEW] update-manager: "Settings..." does not open settings window

[Oren Bar]

Public bug reported:

happens in both Gnome-classic(no effects) and Unity.
1. i start update-manager GUI manually.
2. pressing "Settings...".
3. what appears to be a refresh of update-manager happens (i see the progress bar that runs every time you open update-manager).
4. Settings window does not open, as if i didn't click it.

My initiative to open the Settings of update-manager was that for some time now, the only way I could see that there are updates, was either opening the update-manager, or looking at the "Shut Down/Lock Screen/Log Out" menu, where it states if there are updates.
I'm currently using gnome-classic and I wanted a notification of updates available in the panel.
