Bug#724582: message should mention other solutions to 'dpkg was interrupted'



reopen 724582
retitle 724582 Upon ^C say "user interrupted received, will stop at next safe point, please wait..."
thanks
DK> ^C isn't blocked, it is noticed and the operation is interrupted at the
DK> next point where it is (relatively) safe to interrupt the operation

Hmmm, maybe there should be some indication to the user!
"Caught user interrupt, will process at the very next safe point...".

That way the user will not go on to more destructive kill -9 etc.
thinking that is the only way!

DK> (aka: at the end of the current dpkg run).

Hmmm, the message could even say "currently on step 7. will stop at the
13th of the remaining 124 steps".
