Hello Stephan, the bug persists: I tried it twice: once with update-manager, and then with update-manager-gnome. Here are the two command-lines and their output: (LANG=C su -c update-manager ; LANG=C dpkg -l update-manager ) 2>&1|tee update-manager.log update-manager.log: Password: warning: could not initiate dbus Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/update-manager", line 76, in <module> app = UpdateManager(data_dir) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/UpdateManager/UpdateManager.py", line 400, in __init__ self.restore_state() File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/UpdateManager/UpdateManager.py", line 831, in restore_state expanded = self.gconfclient.get_bool("/apps/update-manager/show_details") gobject.GError: Der Konfigurationsserver konnte nicht kontaktiert werden; mögliche Fehlerquellen sind, dass TCP/IP für ORBit nicht aktiviert ist oder auf Grund eines Systemabsturzes alte NFS-Sperren gesetzt sind.

And again: the problem only occurs for "su -c" and "gksu". It does not occur for sudo. Anything else I should try?
