there is no Problem anymore with this issue. Please correct me when I
was wrong ;-)

Bug description:
Binary package hint: update-manager
When there are updates in Jaunty (904) and the update manager starts, it shows
the update-manager window and shows the window minimizing (with animation).
This can be seen when all other windows have been minimized or when there are
no windows in the way of the update-manager window. This behavior is very
distracting and grabs the users attention as it flashes on the screen, the
exact thing the "new" notification system is supposed to prevent.
This is just my opinion but maybe a better solution is that when the update
manager starts it is in the background but doesn't have its task listed in the
panel. Just like the dialog box that is popped up when downloading/installing
things in synaptic (I'm not sure if this is even possible). Thus making in
unable to be minimized only closed, this would also remove it from the ALT-TAB
list. Another alternative might be that the update manager doesn't show up in
the task panel until it is minimized, essentially popping open in the
background but not visible until you change and/or minimize the window you are
working in.
Notes:
1. This is seen when not using a composite desktop, I'm not sure of the
behavior when you do run one.
2. The attached video was captured with Xvidcap, I apologize for it not being
in Theora but it is viewable with VLC
