Bug Description
The latest updates to karmic (Oct 2) required a restart. There was also a dialogue window about whether to delete 5 (6?) obsolete files. The "restart required" flashed up a moment after the "delete?" window and covered it. I chose "restart later" which allowed me to get at the confirmation delete the obsolete files.
I don't know whether just hitting "restart" would have caused problems. If yes, then that sequence needs cleaning up before the next batch of updates requiring a restart.
(Karmic looks beautiful, fast, and stable, by the way! :D )
