Same problem is when I click "Cancel" button on top-left corner.
Also there are no process matched "apt" or "dpkg" in `ps aux | grep -E 'dpkg|apt'` output.

Cancelling updates seems to work fine for me using version 5.23.5. Is it possible that it's gotten fixed?

Comment 3 Nate Graham 2022-01-22 16:18:20 UTC

Indeed.
