[Bug 1003950] Re: launcher does not show minimized update manager while clicked

[clickwir]

Me too. :-) Yup, just updated my laptop that's running 14.10. Software
Updater is on the side, I can right click on it and tell it to install
the updates. It even asks for the password, then installs the updates.
But doesn't show a window.

Running it manually works fine.

Bug description:
  Update manager is showing up in the dock but I can click on the icon
  all day and nothing happens. Similarly if I do Super-S or Super-W it
  doesn't show up anywhere.

  Even if I alt-tab to the application nothing shows up. This happens
  only when update manager runs on its own. If I kill it and then launch
  it myself it comes to the foreground just fine.

  I'm not 100% sure whether this is a unity, compiz, or update-manager
  bug but so far my bet is on unity.
