This is a big problem since inexperienced users get there whole package
management  system stuck, because killing muon or rebooting because of
the freeze causes the lock file to be retained and hence no updates are
possible anymore

Title:
  Kubuntu 11.10 beta 1: Error upgrading using muon

Status in “gtk+2.0” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “kde-workspace” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  After installing Kubuntu 11.10 beta 1 in Virtualbox 4.1.2 (during
  installation I did not select to get updates) I tried to do a full
  update using muon package manager.

  The download of packages completed successfully but the installation
  process stuck on 20 %  on kate package update.

  After waiting for a long time ( about 1 hour), I killed the update
  process.

  Then, I restarted the virtual machine but my system is not functional
  (e.g no network, no sound, no way to perform updates).
