Package: man-db Version: 2.5.0-4 Severity: important mandb run from cron.daily eats my CPU.
Seems be be blocked, in a loop, as strace won't report anything (strace -p on the process). Started with --debug, I get : Active processes (1): "zcat < /usr/share/man/man1/openoffice.1.gz" (17780) -> 0 ++priv_drop_count = 1 ++priv_drop_count = 2 --priv_drop_count = 1 Starting pipeline: zcat < /usr/share/man/man1/openoffice.1.gz | /usr/lib/man-db/manconv -f UTF-8:ISO-8859-1 -t UTF-8 [input: {0, /usr/share/man/man1/openoffice.1.gz}, output: {-1, NULL}] Started "zcat < /usr/share/man/man1/openoffice.1.gz", pid 17781 Started "/usr/lib/man-db/manconv", pid 17782 ++priv_drop_count = 2 --priv_drop_count = 1 Waiting for pipeline: zcat < /usr/share/man/man1/openoffice.1.gz | /usr/lib/man-db/manconv -f UTF-8:ISO-8859-1 -t UTF-8 [input: {0, /usr/share/man/man1/openoffice.1.gz}, output: {-1, NULL}] Active processes (2): "zcat < /usr/share/man/man1/openoffice.1.gz" (17781) -> 0 "/usr/lib/man-db/manconv" (17782) -> 0 --priv_drop_count = 0 "openoffice - OpenOffice.org office suite" record = 'openoffice - OpenOffice.org office suite' base_name = 'ooffice' name = 'openoffice', id = C ignoring differing ids: openoffice name = 'ooffice', id = B replace_if_necessary(): replace ult_src: File /usr/share/man/man1/mysql_find_rows.1.gz in mantree /usr/share/man Starting pipeline: zcat < /usr/share/man/man1/mysql_find_rows.1.gz [input: {0, /usr/share/man/man1/mysql_find_rows.1.gz}, output: {-1, NULL}] Started "zcat < /usr/share/man/man1/mysql_find_rows.1.gz", pid 17784 Waiting for pipeline: zcat < /usr/share/man/man1/mysql_find_rows.1.gz [input: {0, /usr/share/man/man1/mysql_find_rows.1.gz}, output: {-1, NULL}] Active processes (1): "zcat < /usr/share/man/man1/mysql_find_rows.1.gz" (17784) -> 0 ++priv_drop_count = 1 ++priv_drop_count = 2 --priv_drop_count = 1 Starting pipeline: zcat < /usr/share/man/man1/mysql_find_rows.1.gz | /usr/lib/man-db/manconv -f UTF-8:ISO-8859-1 -t UTF-8 [input: {0, /usr/share/man/man1/mysql_find_rows.1.gz}, output: {-1, NULL}] Started "zcat < /usr/share/man/man1/mysql_find_rows.1.gz", pid 17785 Started "/usr/lib/man-db/manconv", pid 17786 ++priv_drop_count = 2 --priv_drop_count = 1 Waiting for pipeline: zcat < /usr/share/man/man1/mysql_find_rows.1.gz | /usr/lib/man-db/manconv -f UTF-8:ISO-8859-1 -t UTF-8 [input: {0, /usr/share/man/man1/mysql_find_rows.1.gz}, output: {-1, NULL}] Active processes (2): "zcat < /usr/share/man/man1/mysql_find_rows.1.gz" (17785) -> 0 "/usr/lib/man-db/manconv" (17786) -> 0 --priv_drop_count = 0 "mysql_find_rows - extract SQL statements from files" record = 'mysql_find_rows - extract SQL statements from files' base_name = 'mysql_find_rows' name = 'mysql_find_rows', id = A Sorry for pour indentation due to vi and copy/paste. I suppose there's something wrong wit the last manpage processing (/usr/share/man/man1/mysql_find_rows.1.gz) ? This may be related to http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=180341 but can't tell for sure.
