Package: update-notifier
Version: 0.99.3debian6
Severity: normal

Hi,

I am using Debian Testing (Squeeze) on my Desktop
and have the following problem:

When the "System restart required" icon in my tray pops up
and asks for a reboot, I click on "Restart now" and then
I get the following message box:

    Reboot failed

    Failed to request reboot, please shutdown manually

But then the system just reboots fine.

I tested it on Sid and I get the same message box
but there the reboot *does not* work.

I can reproduce it with these commands:

    touch /var/run/reboot-required
    touch /var/lib/update-notifier/dpkg-run-stamp

The only hint I found is a similar bug @ Launchpad
