Subject: update-manager-gnome: Install Updates button is deselcted by default
Package: update-manager-gnome
Version: 0.200.0~rc4-1
Severity: normal

Recently I have noticed that update-manager starts with the Install Updates button deselected by default.  This is the case whether I chose Smart Upgrade or not.  The only way I can get the button to become active is by clicking a checkbox on a package to be upgraded.  If the package is already selected, then deselecting it will activate the button. I can then click the checkbox and reselect it and install.  Without clicking on at least one checkbox, whether it is checked or not by default, I am unable to click the Install Updates button.  I didn't notice this behavior prior to 0.200.0~rc4-1, and I don't recall if it happened immediately after upgrade.
