Linux - Check for Updates broken

[Bernard Devlin]

Hi Markus,

I reported this was broken more than 18 months ago.  It is still
marked as an "unconfirmed" bug:
http://quality.runrev.com/qacenter/show_bug.cgi?id=7174

Your report of what happens does not fit with what I remember
happening.  But in any case, it has certainly been known as a bug on
linux for some time.

Regards

Bernard

What happens is that the dialog box is shown for downloading (as on MacOSX or Windows) but clicking on "Update Now"  doesn't start the update procedure as expected rather it will start a browser window and directs me to the www.runrev.com/downloads/all=downloads/full-list page.
