Public bug reported:

Note: Using terminal apt-get update and apt-get upgrade still seem to
work.

Software Updater will show the available upgrades, and allow me to click
'install now', but after clicking that button, I get a blank window with
no updates.

I've noticed this since the beginning of 2021, approximately.

1) Description: Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS
Release:        20.04

2) Software Updater
(update-manager) 1:20.04.10.2

3) I expected the listed upgrades to go through an install process,
eventually being notified all upgrades had been installed and either it
was complete or it required a restart. (This is all through the GUI of
the Software Updater process.)

4) I was shown a blank window from Software Updater and no upgrades are
processed.
