Unable to fsync updated status of 'xxxxxx': Input/output error
Any idea why I might be getting this error from dpkg when trying to
install packages? It seems to be sort of random...
I straced it and it is indeed fsync failing.
This is on an unstable system that was brute force installed
(uncompress base*.tgz). I have a feeling that this is the cause of
the problem but I'm not sure where I might have gone astray, or which
config file I might have missed...
Thanks,
