Title:
  No obvious error when Software Centre can't install due to Synaptic
  being open

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: software-center

  If Synaptic is running and you attempt to install software from the
  Software Centre, it just sits there with the in progress icon turning
  (see attached image). It is only when you click on the icon that it
  says: 'Waiting for synaptic to exit'. A notification would make this
  more obvious for the user.
