[Bug 1115089] Re: 'unable to fsync updated status of `apache2.2-common': Input/output error' occurs during quantal to raring upgrade with server tasks

[Paul Larson]

This bug has been unreproducible since then, so I'm going to go ahead an
close it. It looks like it could have been an isolated incident due to
some infrastructure issue. If it happens again, we can try to see if
there's any pattern.
