** Description changed: + [Impact] + + * Failure to complete installation. + + [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.
