Looks like this is bugging me on new Kali 2 (Debian) 32bit system.
System freezes every time for about 15 secs after apt-get install (or upgrade) is done.

Title:
  dpkg hangs while unpacking replacement

Status in dpkg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: dpkg

  I tried to install libmoon (I know, I know) using apt-get. It hung
  while unpacking the replacement. The last message was: "Unpacking
  replacement libmoon". Eventually I had to kill it and reboot. From
  then on, everytime I ran apt-get it would retry the libmoon
  installation. Eventually I found a command to stop that from happening
  (I don't remember what it was). I was thinking it was just that one
  package. However, now its happening on the ifupdown package.

  I'm pretty sure that its actually dpkg that's hanging. I tried running
  the following command and, sure enough, it hangs:

  dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/ifupdown_0.6.8ubuntu29_i386.deb

  If I turn on debugging, the last line I see is "deferred extract mass
  sync". Then nothing.
