I don't think that sync should be needed, as dpkg already syncs all the
files it writes (unless you use 'eatmydata' or similar hack to disable
this).
If you're sure that dpkg was no longer running at the point you
rebooted, then you may have actually found a bug - either in dpkg or the
kernel, but not specific to this package version.
