One of my main "selling" points when encouraging my friends and family to switch to Linux (and Ubuntu in particular) has been that restarts are seldom necessary - hitherto proudly displayed by the "Restart Later" button.
Incidentally, I'm not aware of any equivalent to the workaround mentioned in #2 under Cinnamon, so thus far I've ps ax|grep'ed update- manager and kill'ed the pid. I use the terminal quite a lot, so I *can* continue to do this, but the symbolic value of trying to coerce me into rebooting when I might just as well choose a better, later, time to do so, by making me to jump through hoops in order to exercise this choice, gives me horror flashbacks to the times of Windows 95, which was what prompted me to turn to Linux in the first place. If that's not a bug, usability- or otherwise, I don't know what is... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1033226 Title: No close option, only restart To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/1033226/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
