Public bug reported:

[Impact]
apt search and probably other code crashes some time, as GetDepCache() in 
trusty does not call BuildCaches() first.

[Test case]
TODO, some apt search -o RootDir=<something> foobar

[Regression potential]
There may be some locking implications, as we build caches when opening 
depcache first, without locks. That said, the same code is in use in all 
post-trusty releases, and they work fine.
