hello,
thanks to maria rossi for the clue.
SOLVED :
1. Close Synaptic or any package manager. Wait for or cancel any updates or
install\uninstall.
2. Make Backups of current /var/lib/dpkg/status file. Just copy and paste to
your home directory or Desktop.
3. Alt+F2 and launch type in gksu gedit

whether we need to do this rubbish for a given filesystem.

I agree that (subjectively - I haven't timed it) it seems somewhat
slower.
Just to throw in some numbers for comparison:
$ sudo time dpkg -i

- 64 s
$ sudo time /home/dchroot/karmic/usr/bin/dpkg -i
Philip, only one small part of the patch was reverted, and that part
shouldn't have been relevant to the error that's the subject of this

I agree that (subjectively - I haven't timed it) it seems somewhat
slower. Correctness over performance, though, so I'm going to go ahead
with this for Lucid at the moment - we can backport additional
performance fixes as they're done upstream.

* Backport from upstream:
- Use FIEMAP when available (on Linux based systems) to sort the .list
files loading order. With a cold cache it improves up to a 70%.
Tests done with the latest git and bzr revisions are positives. The only
thing that remains is that the file status-new is not synced to status.
This is a minor a annoyance since running 'dpkg --configure -a' after
the crash will correct the error.
There is a performance impact of a factor 2 (2
