Problem Description:

This update fixes several minor issues in rpmdrake:
- it fixes a crash due to bad timing with the X server (#41010)
- it fix empty per importance lists of updates in rpmdrake (list of all updates was OK, MandrivaUpdate was OK) (#41331) (regression introduced in 3.95 on 2007-09-14)
