I just did a network upgrade from Feisty to GutsyRC, and repeatedly ran
into the same problem - dpkg dies and goes <defunct> and apt-get hangs
forever.  It kept happening on kmail and openoffice.org packages.  Have
to open a terminal and kill apt-get manually.  This happened wtih the
PC(x86) version.  The bug is definitely still present.

What really surprised me is that nothing entered in the terminal works,
as mentioned above, not even CTRL-Z or C or \.
