apt-get makes less of an effort to "clean up" the current package statuses.
Whether that is good or not is debatable.

One of the {pre,post}{inst,rm} scripts for grub-pc is hanging. First,
determine which one, then file a bug. Next, find out what line in the shell
script is causing the problem, probably by using "set -x" at the top of the
script. From these, the grub-pc maintainer will probably have to give you
direction.
