I just got hit by this as well. The bug also triggered an Apport
dialog, which (IMHO erroneously) pointed to
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-
properties/+bug/1167314.
I guess the action linked from the software-properties-gtk "Restart..."
button ought to be configurable by a packaged setting. For XFCE, it
looks (by quick googling) like "xfce4-session-logout --reboot" would be
a suitable value for XUbuntu.
