Title:
  "Searching for available drivers..." gives no indication of progress

Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  software-properties 0.92.37.3, Ubuntu 14.04

  1. Open System Settings > "Software & Updates".
  2. Choose "Additional Drivers".
  3. Wait 30 seconds.

  What you see:
  2. The text "Searching for available drivers..." centered in the box, but no other hint of progress.
  3. A list of drivers.

  What you should see:
  2. A progress bar, if the driver search has determinate progress; otherwise a spinner.

  <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareAndUpdatesSettings#drivers>: “The
  ‘Additional Drivers’ tab should begin with a listbox containing a
  progress bar and the text ‘Searching for available drivers…’ until the
  search is complete.”
