Public bug reported:
[Impact]
cache.commit() does not release all the locks it acquires as part of
committing. This is a regression of locking fixes in bug 1795407.
[Test case]
This script should work:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import apt
import subprocess
cache = apt.Cache()
pkg = cache["hello"]
pkg.mark_install()
cache.commit()
subprocess.check_call(["apt", "remove", "--yes", "hello"])
