Start at the purge/downgrade foreign packages interface and reproduce the problem by clicking the Apply button twice. Identify the Apply button handler and make sure the button is disabled after the first press, then verify that repeated clicks no longer interfere with the operation.

Description

When purging/downgrading foreign packages: clicking apply button twice causes it to interfere with itself. This is easy to do by accident on a laptop with a cheap touchpad. A simple fix would be to disable the button after it is pressed once.
