Bug#428897: GNOME application that manages software updates is opening but not responding

[Panayiotis Mousouliotis]

Package: update-manager

Version: 0.42.2ubuntu22-12

GNOME application that manages software updates is opening but not
responding and does the system going slower!
The main window of the program gets gray and above the main window
there is a smaller window called
"untitled window" which says Examining your system. This small window
after some seconds gets gray too.

To close the update-manager i do 'force quit' but then the system
still goes slow. To get the system to it's
default speed i give to the console:

$ps x | grep update-manager
16200 pts/2    Ss+    0:00 /bin/su root -c
/usr/lib/libgksu/gksu-run-helper "/usr/bin/update-manager"
16201 pts/2    S+     0:00 /usr/lib/libgksu/gksu-run-helper
/usr/bin/update-manager
16206 pts/2    R+     9:19 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/update-manager
16462 pts/1    R+     0:00 grep update-manager
$kill 16200
