[Bug 1946597] [NEW] dpkg "Setting up <packagename>" hangs on the every package that should be set up

[Semjon Kravtsenko]

Public bug reported:

So the hang occurs on the first package that should be set up,
alphabetically. For example, if I run "sudo dpkg --configure -a", it
will hang on "Setting up acpid (1:2.0.32-1ubuntu2) ...".

The problem may have been caused by dist-upgrade from 21.04. I use ZFS
filesystem.
