Here is the message I get:

systemimager-doc is already the newest version.

Note, I am running apt-get as a cover script and it's possible that
the following maybe causing a problem?
trap 'echo Can not interrupt while doing xhier stuff....' INT QUIT
it should be noted that I'm pretty convinced that I have a trap ""
before I run the real apt-get binary so I'm mystified....
So I guess a question I have is what kind of signal handling does
apt have. I have confirmed that if I run the apt-get binary
directly rather than my cover I don't get the message about no new
packages installed after a new package is installed. Any
clarification would be greatly appreciated.

This worked fine.

This is apt-get being invoked a second time, trying to install the same
package which was already installed above. This seems like a problem with
your script.
