[Bug 1443666] [NEW] Text flashes in update-manager-kde before updating

[Valorie Zimmerman]

Public bug reported:

This is only a visual glitch, but it does affect user experience.

Once the shield icon is clicked, up pops Muon Update Manager, briefly
displaying some sort of list. That lasts only a flicker, then
downloading of the list of necessary updates commences. Once the
download is complete, the list of updates displays properly. Once the
update button is pushed, and the password entered, the process completes
successfully.

That flicker leaves the user with an uneasy feeling however, and it
should not be displayed.
