[Bug 869444] Re: Preconfigures packages multiple times

[Daniel Hahler]

It has been three times during the upgrade to 13.10 here:

    Extracting templates from packages: 100%
    Preconfiguring packages ...
    Extracting templates from packages: 100%
    Preconfiguring packages ...
    Extracting templates from packages: 100%
    Preconfiguring packages ...

I had aborted it before and removed apt-listchanges (temporarily).

Title:
  Preconfigures packages multiple times

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Running a natty->oneiric upgrade, and watching the terminal output,
  shows that the "Extracting templates from packages" / "Preconfiguring
  packages" phase is executed *four* times consecutively before unpack
  of packages starts.

  That seems a bit weird. And wastes time, especially if you happen to
  have apt-listchanges installed.
