Description
### What Happened?
I inadvertantly started an "Update All" process while having Synaptic open. The process proceeded to certain point but then stalled with the progressbar at 100%, the spinner working, and the cancel button tooltip reading "Waiting". It was not immediate obvious what was causing the wait. Once Synaptic was closed the process completed quickly.
### Steps to Reproduce
1. Start Synaptic or similar process
2. Launch AppCenter and start an "Update All" process
3. Observe that the process proceeds for a while then stalls with no obvious feedback as to reason.
### Expected Behavior
Clear user feedback should be given when an update process cannot complete until a user action is taken
### OS Version
6.x (Odin)
### Software Version
