Bug Description

Hi! I'm running up-to-date Feisty. I have (a long time ago) configured the update manager to automatically check for updates and display them in the notification area on the panel. (I think that's the default setting, I just tweaked it a bit.)

The notification appears when it detects updates. The update manager works. However, there's a small problem: the notification icon has a right-click menu with a few options. The last of them is "Preferences". If I remember correctly, this should show a window where I could choose auto-downloading of updates and things like that. Right now, that option doesn't do anything. I click on it, I get the "working" mouse cursor for a split second, and then nothing happens.

The update manger window itself doesn't seem to have a menu or any other method of reaching the config menu. Where should I look next?
