[Bug 1911804] [NEW] software update procedure starts but gets blocked right at the beginning

[Andrea Francioso]

Public bug reported:

After upgrading my ubuntu version from 18.04 LTS to 20.04.01 LTS, my pc isn't able anymore to make the ordinary upgrades.
They are still regularly propsoed, I launch them, but the process stops at the very first step, the packages not even starting to be downloaded.
