Setting to High because it affects a core feature of package management
(debconf prompts during installation)

** Description changed:

+ Test Case:
+ 1. Download opera deb file from opera.com
+ 2. Run the file to launch gnome-software
+ 3. Install it
+ 4. Proceed with the debconf prompt
+
+ Actual result
+ It hangs and generate this crashes when the user closes the debconf window.
