Bug Description

Checking/unchecking the group checkbox seems to flip the value of its child checkboxes instead of mark all/mark none.

Test case:
Ask for updates, make sure the packages are grouped by source.
Uncheck the first child of a group.
Click on the global checkbox of the same group.

What I get:
The first child is set to "checked", the rest are set "unchecked", like a binary NOT operation.

What I expect:
Child checkboxes should mimic the group checkbox status.
If the grup checkbox is set to "unchecked", all childs must be unchecked.
If the group checkbox is set to "checked", all childs must be checked.

Thanks Robert. I can see it is already triaged and assigned to a dev, so, I'm going to remove it from the Papercuts project; there is no point on wasting resources for something already in course.
