Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: base-files

During the most recent upgrade to base-files (4.0.1ubuntu5.8.04.2 =>
4.0.1ubuntu5.8.04.3), my system (Hardy) spent a long time running the
base-files postinst.  This was due to the part which runs find across
various places including /etc:

  find -L $NINER_NINER_PATHS -gid 999 -print0 |
        xargs -0rt chgrp 0
  find $NINER_NINER_SYMLINKS -gid 999 -print0 |
        xargs -0rt chgrp -h 0
  find /media -maxdepth 1 -name "cdrom[0-9]*" -gid 999 -print0 |
        xargs -0rt chgrp 0

On my system, /etc/skel contains a skeleton setup for
~/.wine/dosdevices, including symlinks to a couple of large NFS shares.

The above find commands should probably use -xdev to avoid things like
this, unless there's a better way.
