I have troubles with upgrade to PVE 5.4, it launches /bin/systemd-tty-ask-password-agent --watch on several occasions and hangs forever. It happens when configuring pve-ha-manager and pve-manager packages. Freeze during pve-ha-manager is especially painful as it leads to unwanted reboot when HA is active.

Here's the process tree:

6716 5748 S 0.0 0.1 0:00.02 | `- sshd: root@pts/1
5656 2792 S 0.0 0.1 0:00.03 | `- -bash
4596 1948 S 0.0 0.1 0:00.02 | `- dpkg --configure -a
1616 1516 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 | `- /bin/sh /var/lib/dpkg/info/pve-manager.postinst configure 5.4-3
2180 1796 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 | `- /bin/systemctl reload-or-try-restart pvedaemon.service
2116 1740 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 | `- /bin/systemd-tty-ask-password-agent --watch

(It rebooted because of HA during apt upgrade, so i've tried dpkg --configure -a with the same result)
