Title:
  hibernation prevented by update-manager

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  If update manager is updating the system, it won't be possible to
  hibernate it. It can become a realy big issue when the systems runs
  out of power: if it is prevented from hibernating, it might shutdown
  unexpectedly and screw up the whole system especially on development
  versions like this one(jaunty).

  In my personnal case, i do not have an internet connection where i
  live so i have to use a hot spot for updating/upgrading my system,
  during long updates, i quickly run out of battery. The option i used
  before jaunty was to hibernate once the packages were downloaded and
  waking it up later,  when i have a real power supply.

  I think there is two options: 
  =>if the system is on battery let it hibernate anyway(but not shutdown!)
  =>or you could add a checkbox "only download packages"
