Package: dpkg Version: 1.20.9 Severity: minor Hi! It's far better to run usrunmess from a system started "single" rather than when running X-and-forty-daemons. However, this usually means fbcon terminal, which even on this year's hardware is so much slower than hardware text mode on a CGA was.
Also, Debian's default kernels have eleventy million files installed under /lib -- linux-image-5.10.0-8-amd64 for example ships 4752 modules. Woe if you have multiple kernel packages! Put together, you spend a long long time watching files listed by usrunmess slowly scroll by. Thus: could you please decrease default verbosity somehow?
