Folks, I have been looking into this but first I need those having this issue to try something.
1. Open /usr/scripts folder as Administrator.
2. Right click on updates-gui and select 'Create backup copy'.
3. Right click on updates-gui (not the backup) and select 'Open with Leafpad'.
4. With this part be very careful!
Copy and paste the following replacing all of the existing text:

5. Then run Menu, Favorites, Install Updates at least 5 - 10 times in a row. Cancel updates each time! Do not proceed with updates. This is for testing only.
Please let me know asap if the list now appears each time. It should look like this (very plain looking):
I'm going to leave this here for now and not move it to bugs as we're not getting widespread messages about this.
This has given me some impetus to move Install Updates from Zenity to Yad. Initial tests show Yad to be way more flexible and it's part of our overall plan to move off Zenity and make Yad more dominant.
