Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubiquity
dpkg in natty supports the '--force-unsafe-io' option since 1.15.8.6 which
disables the sync() calls when upacking the packages.
* Add new --force-unsafe-io to disable safe I/O operations on unpack.
Closes: #584254
Can ubiquity be made to make use of that? That should speed up
installation on rotary drives quite a bit.
