Comment 4 for bug 413415

To note, I've been experiencing this since at least Feisty... this (or a related issue) would additionally trigger crashes under certain circumstances. The only solution I've had has been to remove console-setup from the base system, which prevents installing non-base packages, such as openssh, until one runs 'apt-get -f install'. This clearly breaks many scripts...

To improve my workaround, I'm intending to try a 2-stage install...
