Package: apt Version: 0.7.11 Severity: wishlist From dpkg's triggers.txt:
A package management tool which will run dpkg --configure --pending at the end may use --suppress-triggers on its other dpkg runs. This would be more efficient as it allows more aggressive deferral (and hence more unification) of trigger processing. Apt does not currently do this, and I think it would be a good idea for it to do so, once a trigger-using dpkg is available in stable. Once menu is converted to use triggers (I have written a patch), update-menus will be triggered twice per dpkg invocation by apt. (This will drop to once per dpkg invocation later..) In a large upgrade, that could be quite a lot of unnecessary update-menus runs. With --suppress-triggers, it would run once at the very end. -- see shy jo
