You probably have that city window opened before, and accidental
moved it in the background (behind the main window). So use your
window manager (Alt-Tab in KDE) to get it visible again.

You probably have conquered a city with the pyramids wonder in it -
now you don't need granaries any more. The message is a bit 
misleading, it's just a warning, and, yes, maybe it's a bug that
you can't build granaries, because it could happen that you loose
Pyramids again (the city).
