Experimental package

Warning: This package is from the experimental distribution. That means it is likely unstable or buggy, and it may even cause data loss. Please be sure to consult the changelog and other possible documentation before using it.

Disable fsync and friends for APT's dpkg calls

This package contains a small configuration snippet to instruct APT to run dpkg via eatmydata to disable fsync and similar calls for dpkg and programs ran by dpkg. As noted in eatmydata's description this makes installation a lot quicker, but less crash safe.

This package may be most useful in temporary containers, chroots, or where a system crash during package installation leaving the system in an inconsistent state is manageable.

For more information why dpkg calls fsync() see: https://bugs.debian.org/613428
