Package: dpkg Version: 1.15.8.3 Severity: wishlist APT holds the dpkg lock itself. Currently, it must release the lock before calling dpkg which creates a short time frame where the database is unlocked. It would therefore be useful if dpkg could be run with APT holding the lock (possibly by adding a --run-unlocked option)
