** Summary changed:
- update-manager: manual update 'backgrounds' the update and gives no user
feedback
+ Be aware of aptdaemon transactions running in the background
** Summary changed:
- Be aware of aptdaemon transactions running in the background
+ Allow to monitor aptdaemon transaction which are running in the background
** Description changed:
+ Aptdaemon allows to close a client application also if the transaction
+ is still running or queued. Update-notifier should be aware of queued
+ transaction and should allow users to access the background transaction.
+
+ To avoid writting a C client for aptdaemon, update-notifier could listen
+ to the ActiveTransactionChanged signal and launch software-center on
+ request.
+
+ Furthermore the shutdown dialog should check if there are still running
+ transactions.

Binary package hint: update-manager
A manually triggered update will sometimes silently update in the
background with no interactive feedback. The user is left with a
"Waiting for other tasks" dialogue. The update will continue as normal
but the user is never informed as to its status. On at least one
occasion this has resulted in damaged (but repairable) apt database due
to shutdown while an update was taking place.
