Sorry, I was not able to fetch the parent message, so I answer to this
one...

I recently had such an issue:
https://github.com/magit/magit/issues/2045.

If the issue is reproducible, it could be worth to report it to the
Magit maintainers.  In my special case, it was fixable from the Magit
side.

BTW, AFAICT since Helm uses async.el for package upgrading we have had
no more of such problems.
