up2date can fail to restart after updating itself

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030703 Description of problem: With up2date 3.9.14-2 updating itself to 3.9.15-2, the restart can fail with the error Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified No interactive mode available Please specify either -l, -u, --nox, or package names as command line arguments. followed by the standard usage message. This is running up2date as an ordinary user, ie. through console-helper. This also happened with an earlier upgrade, though I don't remember the versions in that case.
I had an error running sudo up2date --nox up2date. I got the following stack trace, I'm assuming it's the same root cause. error: db4 error(-30989) from dbcursor->c_get: DB_PAGE_NOTFOUND: Requested page not found error: db4 error(-30989) from dbcursor->c_get: DB_PAGE_NOTFOUND: Requested page not found New Up2date available error: db4 error(-30989) from dbcursor->c_get: DB_PAGE_NOTFOUND: Requested page not found error: db4 error(-30989) from dbcursor->c_get: DB_PAGE_NOTFOUND: Requested page not found Fetching Obsoletes list for channel: redhat-linux-severn-i386-9.0.93...

The message was: Test install failed because of package conflicts: package up2date-3.9.15-2 is already installed
I should add that up2date successfully updated itself despite my stack trace, then again this could be an unrelated problem :)
looks like the same as #104152 should be fixed in 3.9.27 or later *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 104152 ***
