Bug Description
Binary package hint: initramfs-tools
On a minimal text-mode-only install of Gutsy (i.e. ubuntu-minimal + ubuntu-standard), "dpkg-reconfigure --all" causes update-initramfs(8) to be invoked no less than 10 times. Moreover, this was running on a fairly old (Pentium II) system, and so significantly slowed down the reconfiguration process (as each initrd update took ~2 minutes).
Initrd updates should be deferred in a situation like this, so that update-initramfs(8) is invoked only once at the end of the reconfiguration process.
