Package: dstat

On a currently patched Lenny system, the module "topbio" of dstat sometimes
terminates with the following error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "/usr/bin/dstat", line 2041, in <module>
   main()
 File "/usr/bin/dstat", line 1986, in main
   o.extract()
 File "/usr/share/dstat/dstat_topbio.py", line 65, in extract
   st = os.stat("/proc/%s" % pid)
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/proc/7250'

It looks like the module is sometimes unable to handle the dynamic
of the process structures in die /proc file system.

The machine is a quite heavy loaded webserver where httpd processes
come and go.

The command line was: dstat -alM topcpu,topio,topbio

Did you try the version from subversion ? The latest version is 0.6.9, and we are preparing 0.6.10. I remember this issue being fixed quite some time ago.
