Public bug reported:
64-bit 14.04 iso (2014-03_17_07:46)
1. Launch Software Center.
2. Select Ubuntu Restricted Extras, begin install, supply credentials.
3. In the past, the installation would appear to hang while actually
waiting for user response to a Eula dialog that was not visible. If the
launcher was not extremely cluttered by the HUGE number of partitions
locked to it, a Question mark icon would appear in the launcher which
could be clicked to make the Eula dialog visible.
4. Now the installation hangs but the Question mark icon never appears.
5. After killing the software-center process and then launching the Software
Center, I was able to successfully install Gparted which leads me to point
the finger at Ubuntu Restricted Extras.
I believe that this bug got introduced/uncovered after 64-bit 14.04 iso
(2014-03_12) and may be related the bug where Google-chrome-stable
cannot be installed via the Software Center although the same version
can be installed via PPA.
