Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gedit
I don't know why, or if any other folder is affected. But, I tried to
open a few files in /var/lib/dpkg/info/ and they all caused the cpu
burn.
A condition for this to happen is that gedit must be closed prior to
opening the file. If gedit is already open, it doesn't happen.
Example command: gedit /var/lib/dpkg/info/adduser.list
The problem happens if you try to open the file through nautilus too.
And with gksu. The only time it doesn't happen is if gedit is already
open.
** Affects: gedit (Ubuntu)
