Bug Description

1. open update-manager when there are new kernel packages ready
2. click on the button to install the updates
3. get distracted and walk away from the computer for some time
.
.
.
4. return to the computer

Find that the "Authentication Required" dialog is the only thing there, stuck to the top-right corner of the screen, blocking everything behind it. It is impossible to get rid of the window.
