Public bug reported: The moment e.g. "Header files to the Linux kernel version 3.2.0" or "Linux kernel headers vor version 3.2.0 on 32 bit x86 SMP" (-44 thereof, i.e. between second and subsequent kernel-related entries from the top today) is highlighted, update-manager 1:0.156.14.11 on Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS deselects the item, reproducibly grabs 100% CPU, becomes barely responsive for minutes (on a 2.66 MHz Dual Core) and starts leaking memory (process had to be user-terminated when taking more than 30% of 2 GB). Neither delays nor excessive RAM consumption occur when moving the selection within the lower, non-kernel items of the update list.
