I am having problems installing the Humble Bundle via software-center.

I just installed Bastion, and I am now trying to install Psychonauts. The install process seems to hang.

I started software-center from a console to debug. I am seeing an error like the following:

2012-06-12 01:43:58,849 - softwarecenter.fixme - WARNING - logs to the root logger: '('/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbus/connection.py', 234, 'maybe_handle_message')'

It seems to be printed every second. In software-center, the GUI says "Installing...." but the Progress button does not show any installs in progress (see screenshot).
