Bug Description

When gdebi is installing or removing software, an "Installing Software" window pops up.
When it is finished, instead of clicking on the "Close" button, I keep forgetting and
click on the window's "Close" gadget instead.
The window disappears, but the main window does not recover.
The buttons are greyed out, and the main window's "Close" gadget is non-functional.

I have to keep using htop in a terminal to kill (SIGTERM) gdebi's process.

One expects using the window's "Close" gadget will accomplish the same thing as clicking the
"Close" button, but it does not.
