Thank you, Sam! The information in your log is exactly what we needed. Analyzing your log, it seems that the shutdown is interrupted due to an error with your software-center config file:

  IOError: [Errno 5] Input/output error: '/home/sam/.config/software-center/softwarecenter.cfg.new'

And this results in the crash that corresponds to this bug's stacktrace.

I was able to reproduce this error by restricing the permissions on the file softwarecenter.cfg.new.

This is great info and clears up the mystery of why we were getting this error. We can take it from here now and get the fix(es) in for this.

Many thanks for your help!
