A new apt-get upgrade a few hours later solved the issue so even if it
"did" exist, it seems that it no longer does... fortunately, because it
seems that many other things (network manager couldn't connect to WiFi,
users-admin not working) were messed up in my system. Saved me from
reformatting.

Title:
Unable to shutdown from lightdm or from top right buttin in panel
Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
A kind of regression/misconfiguration must have occurred today after a
14.04 dist-upgrade.
On top-right unity panel, selecting restart or shutdown only offers to lock
screen or close session.
In lightdm (out of sessions), only shutdown appears, but a text "are you sure
you want to shut down" (translating from Spanish) window in the middle appears,
with no buttons, so I cannot take any subsequent action apart from closing the
pop-up.
In order to shutdown/ reboot, I must log in the console and execute
usual reboot, poweroff, etc. commands.
Somebody else seems to complain "today" about related behaviour:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/443249/missing-shut-down-and-restart-button-in-14-04
In some askubuntu pages for previous versions, they recommended changing
RUN=yes in speed-dispatcher.
Currently, my file is:
cat /etc/default/speech-dispatcher
# Defaults for the speech-dispatcher initscript, from speech-dispatcher
# Set to yes to start system wide Speech Dispatcher
RUN=no
but, frankly, I don't know what it is and I don't wish messing around with
that file.
I filed the bug on lightdm because on reboot, I cannot shutdown even before
starting any user session.
