Public bug reported:

What I expected:
When there are new packages to install, I click on the icon on the dock, which 
brings up the software update screen of the package manager. The window should 
be entirely visible on the screen, and all controls should be available.

What happened:
This window is not maximized, but is sized larger than the screen, thereby 
cutting off the 'install packages' button. I have to click on the 'maximize' 
button to resize the window in order to see the 'install packages' button.
