[Test Case] * At times, apt cache can run out of file descriptors as seen in this bug and its duplicates. * There is no clear-cut way to reproduce it in ubiquity, but there is a significant amount of crash reports submit, which dropped off after the proposed fix has been applied. [Regression Potential] * The proposed fix has been well tested in trusty both automated & manual testing and does not regress on any configuration. [Other Info] This error occurs each time I try to install a .deb file with Gdebi in Ubuntu 12.10, after the deb installation finishes.
