[Bug 1065269] Re: Close update-manager automatically after updates have been applied

I agree that a checkbox would be useful, saying "Close dialog when
update completes", or some variation on a theme. It also has to take
into consideration the need for a reboot after some updates and in that
case, refrain from closing.

Title:
  Close update-manager automatically after updates have been applied

Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  Confirmed
Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  In my opinion it would be a usability improvement if the update
  manager would close automatically after updates have been installed.
  After a successful update there is no useful information in the
  window, but the user has to navigate back to the application and has
  to manually close it. Instead, the update manager should only stay
  open if errors occur during installation that the user has to be
  informed about.

  Previously there was a "Close when finished" checkbox in the update-
  dialog. Defaulting to closing the window is a better solution than
  bringing the checkbox back, in my opinion.
