Well, once it came to upgrade the Open office package, that is where the problem occurred; Quite a few packages where upgraded, then once the OpenOffice suite was being upgraded, the error message started showing up... After an hour of seeing nothing but something along the lines of the line of: "there was an error in in the xxxx, most likely caused by a bug in the dbus.." you would press Ctrl-C too. The message repeated occasionally, but quickly, at first then finally stopped, and nothing seemed to be going on in terms of disk activity. Ctrl-C was the most benign thing I could do at that point in time. Funny enough, processing continued on the remaining packages, and wasn't going to worry about it too much, figuring I could always put on a clean install if the upgrade was hosed. However everything else went along fine, then at the end a dialog came up saying that an error was detected and that the system could be unstable. Another dialog came up saying would I please report the detected error, so I did. Didn't think that it was considering Ctrl-C was the error.
There was no other way I could see for it to continue processing other than pressing Ctrl-C in the progress window... or powercycling and having a hosed system for sure. I don't recall if I had any other options at that point in time - the dire warning of once the upgrade is in process you cannot stop ( or have an unstable system) certainly left no other options. You may call this invalid, but it certainly happened to me and I think I pursued the best possible option at that time.
