Bug Description
Binary package hint: update-manager
update-manager is getting stuck at the end of a dist-upgrade every time on Intrepid. The upgrade seems to successfully complete, but the window does not go away and it needs to be killed. It does not freeze as the progress bar is still animated at the end of "cleaning up", but just doesn't do anything. I left it for at least 30min the other day and it didn't complete.
When running 'sudo update-manager --dist-upgrade' from a terminal, only the following is output:
/usr/lib/
self.
When killing it with Ctrl-C:
^CERROR:root:not handled expection:
Traceback (most recent call last):

I have seen reports in #ubuntu+1 about this too. There seems to be a gnome-pty-helper process stuck in read(0, when stracing it.
