I've done it while   sudo dpkg --configure -a seems to have hung and
the prompt has not returned. So I guess you're right.

26508 pts/0    S+     0:00 sudo dpkg --configure -a
26509 pts/0    S+     0:00 dpkg --configure -a
26517 pts/0    S+
0:00 /bin/sh /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-4.15.0-24-generic.postinst
triggered linux-update-4.15.0-24-generic
