Title:
  Upgrade window freezes when I press Ctrl+Shift+I

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I was upgrading my Ubuntu GNOME 15.10 system to 16.04 with update-
  manager.

  Note: I've the org.gtk.Settings.Debug enable-inspector-keybinding
  gsetting set to true to enable the GTK+ Inspector.

  I hit Ctrl+Shift+I (the key to open the GTK+ inspector) while the
  upgrade window was focused, in the middle of upgrading packages.  A
  few minutes later the upgrade process stopped making progress (CPU
  idle, no disk I/O).  The window is not reacting to mouse clicks or key
  events.

  pstree shows

     xenial,16938,root /tmp/ubuntu-release-upgrader-_yjo7xr4/xenial --mode=server --frontend=DistUpgradeViewGtk3
       `-(dpkg,6263)

  and strace -p 16938 shows

     write(14, "pmstatus:libde265-0:16.8172:Installing libde265-0
  (amd64)\n", 58

  and lsof -p 16938 shows

    xenial    16938                  root   13r     FIFO               0,10      0t0    5172320 pipe
    xenial    16938                  root   14w     FIFO               0,10      0t0    5172320 pipe

  while the last few terminal messages shown in the upgrade window were

    Unpacking gir1.2-atspi-2.0 (2.18.3-4ubuntu1) over (2.16.0-1ubuntu1) ...
    Processing triggers for ureadahead (0.100.0-19) ...

  /var/log/dist-upgrade/apt-term.log ends has those lines, and more (507
  lines or 53773 bytes more), ending in
