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.
