Package: kerneloops
Version: 0.3-1
Severity: important
I had started kerneloops on my system, and after a few days, it started eating
a lot of memory, finally waking up the kernel's OOM killer during the night.
The next day, top showed me:

And several daemons on my systems were killed by the OOM killer. I have never
experienced OOM situations on this system since at least a year, so it seems
kerneloops, which I installed a few days ago, is the culprit.
