Public bug reported: System just hung for hours (10) trying to install the package as specified in the summary box. I tried to do this install via the Ubuntu Software app (not via apt-get). The graph showing how far the install went stopped moving when it got to the first 'l' in "Installing." This has happened previously. Canceling and rebooting and then recoing the package install doesn't seem to help. Ubuntu 16.04 LTS o(64-bit) n a Dell E4310 laptop with 7.Gb memory available.
