[Bug 2076316] [NEW] Update-manager doesn't stop upon clicking stop

[Nathan Teodosio]

Public bug reported:

When update-manager is launching, it shows a progress bar while it
fetches newest information for the Apt database. When one clicks stop,
the update does not seem to stop (if for a moment); At the end update-
manager reports again "downloading from archive.ubuntu.com" which was
supposed to just have been stopped.

Moreover, the window becomes unresponsive — if I switch to a different
workspace and then back, the window is just a black box — while at 100%
CPU update-manager calculates the available upgrades (I reckon that's
what is doing anyway).

** Affects: update-manager (Ubuntu)
