This bug was fixed in the package dpkg - 1.15.5.6ubuntu4.6 --------------- dpkg (1.15.5.6ubuntu4.6) lucid-proposed; urgency=low
* Cherry-pick fixes for sync() behaviour in dpkg (LP: #624877): - Disable by default usage of synchronous sync(2), as it causes undesired I/O on unrelated file systems. Closes: #588339, #595927, #600075 - On Linux use sync_file_range() to initiate asynchronous writeback of just unpacked files. Suggested by Ted Ts'o <ty...@mit.edu>. Thanks to Jonathan Nieder <jrnie...@gmail.com>.
