I'm not complaining, since I'm not one of your developers, and therefore do not have to eat your dog food unless I choose to. > Sorry, that's unrelated to any of the above changes and no one else is > reporting such a problem.

How odd, when the "hardware" in question is completely virtualized, and, whenever it did occur, it would occur simultaneously in two parallel, but physically distinct and independent virtualization environments, both of which emulate completely different hardware, and use distinct virtual-disk formats. In fairness, though, this has not happened in quite a while now. I'm only reminded because it surface for me again today, although the system was nice enough to recover itself gracefully (on previous occasions, dpkg --configure -a sufficed): E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg received a segmentation fault. A package failed to install.
