Bug#613428: dpkg --force-unsafe-io still calls fsync()

[Guillem Jover] I've suspected this would be the case all along, but as I don't use one of the new filesystems (due to issues like this), I never bothered to test it. Note, I only tested on ext4. I have not tested on any of the new file systems. :) -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen

Bug#483997: dpkg: please allow for a mechanism to specify postinst ordering beyond Depends:

scripts should run in order B.postinst, A.postinst. It would solve the problem I see, and allow for a mechanism to specify postinst ordering also for non-depend relationships. Is there a better way to fix the problems we experience in bugs #760084 and #745834? -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen

automatically outside the initial installaiton, and thus unsure if the trigger approach is the right one. But I will investigate. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-dpkg-bugs-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas

Bug#694886: dpkg: Complain about missing descriptions for packages in /var/lib/dpkg/available

[Guillem Jover] Was it obvious from the log when did it start to warn? Yes. It happened while deboostrap was running. Just after e2fsprogs was configured and before adduser was unpacked: Dec 1 17:16:00 debootstrap: Setting up sysvinit (2.88dsf-34) ... Dec 1 17:16:00 debootstrap: sysvinit:

with a usecase that could make me understand when it is useful to not fsync the package files and only fsync the dpkg database. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-dpkg-bugs-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas

Dependency based boot sequencing and triggers (Was: dpkg semi-hijack - an announcement (also, triggers))
