Public bug reported:
It seems that if synaptic is installing automatic updates / security
updates in the background and you ask ubuntu (through X) to turn off the
computer your package system can get corrupted.
My suggestion is that when selecting logout/shutdown/hibernate etc. a
message should appear showing something like:
Your system is being updated
[************ ] "Progress bar"
You will be logged out / The sytem will shutdown/hibernate etc. when it
is finished installing...
If you wish to override, press "button"
** Affects: synaptic (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
