This is BS.  Just because Ubuntu ignore a bug for 60 days does not make
it eligible for Expriy.  The bug still exists and will exist until
somebody does something about it.  It doesn't just magically go away
after 60 days.

Title:
  Unpacking linux-headers unbelievably slow in Lubuntu Precise (Beta 1)

Status in “dpkg” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  The below is an example line in an apt-get dist-upgrade which seems to
  take 30 minutes or more on a 2.1GHz CPU (one core of a quad core
  through Virtualbox). I've been looking at it for ages, and even had
  time to log in here and file the bug  - the line is still 'hung'.

  Unpacking linux-headers-3.2.0-18 (from .../linux-
  headers-3.2.0-18_3.2.0-18.28_all.deb)

  Can anyone explain this, or is it a bug in the configuration of
  Lubuntu, Apt-get or something. I read that there was a similarly
  behaving bug to do with dpkg using paranoid file synchronization but
  this length of delay is frankly a bit crazy.
