Phillip Susi, I never claimed it did. But I may want to lock the
/var/lib/dpkg/lock beforehand, so that system is guaranteed to be
unchanged before I launch apt-get in a script. So I think the status
change you made, and the justification you gave is invalid.
** Changed in: util-linux (Ubuntu)
Status: Invalid => New
