Title:
  update-manager does not cope gracefully with 'apt-get autoremove'
  being run from console in the background

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

Bug description:
  update-manager crashed because I ran 'apt-get autoremove' from console
  while the window was open, then hit 'install' in the app.  It didn't
  like that the system state had changed after it had calculated its
  lists, and did not deal with this gracefully.
