Title:
  No sign of updates still being installed when shutting down

Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  New
Status in “unattended-upgrades” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  On machines which have Internet access not very often and with
  unattended-upgrades enabled sometimes unattended-upgrades doesn't
  finish working before user shuts down their computer. It causes the
  system to show Ubuntu splash screen for quite a while instead of
  shutting down. Users migrating from ms windows usually think that the
  system froze up and switch off the computer with power button, causing
  dpkg to refuse installing any more packages or even messing up certain
  apps or (in extreme cases) even breaking the filesystem.

  Plymouth shoud show a message like "finishing installing software
  updates, please wait" on shutdown when unattended-upgrades is still
  running.
