Public bug reported:
Updating certain "non-free" packages requires the user to affirmatively
accept the licence terms. Update manager hangs indefinitely until the
user accepts or declines the licence. When setting the upgrade to
happen over night, the update did nothing most of the night because it
wanted someone to click "next" for 8 hours.
Could it timeout upgrading a package after about 30 minutes of no user
input and then leave that package to be upgraded later (when the user is
probably waiting around during the upgrades)? That way, the user may
even choose to not use the non-free if the new version has better
support for that particular need.
Flash Plug-In was the offending package.
** Affects: update-manager (Ubuntu)
