It seems that there are also cases where update-manager freezes when libgtk2-perl is not installed. I can confirm this has just happened during the grub-pc upgrade on 14.04.2

This process got stuck:

"/usr/bin/perl -w /usr/share/debconf/frontend /var/lib/dpkg/info/grub-pc.postinst configure 2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1.3"

Running "apt-get install -f" from terminal after killing the frozen process fixes the issue.

I would think that libgtk2-perl should also be a dependency of update-manager?
