** Description changed:

+ TEST CASE:
+ - the dpkg bugs are really hard to trigger so a regression test should be 
enough
+ 
  Binary package hint: apt
  
  apt currently prevents reporting of dpkg I/O errors in apt-
  pkg/deb/dpkgpm.cc by looking for the string 'short read in buffer_copy'
  from dpkg.  However, this string has changed to 'short read on buffer
  copy for %s' and there are now more than one error messages used by dpkg
  (see lib/dpkg/buffer.c).
  
  This incomplete blocking is leading to unnecessary bug reports in
  Launchpad.
