scrollkeeper is still present and used in Ubuntu netbook remix 9.04, and it
still is very slow.
Please do something to fix the problem.

In 9.04 you can replace scrollkeeper with librarian which should fix
your problems. It's so easy, I'm not sure why they didn't do it before.

Could we get librarian in Hardy? The high CPU is absolutely ridiculous
- it is a bug that should be addressed.

should be fixed now? Probably the trigger thing would be good for it,
too.

thx ski for the work around.
Another thing to mention: scrollkeeper-update does also take a lot of
memory causing my laptop to swap and slow down.

This kills ps3 ubuntu badly during a recent update. It is dissapointing
that it cannot be uninstalled without excessive side-effects.
Please just patch it out of existence or fudge the dependencies so it
can be safely ignored.

Attached is a debdiff which implements the trigger. scrollkeeper-update
will still be run twice if both scrollkeeper and some scrollkeeper-using
package are upgraded at the same time, since scrollkeeper-rebuilddb
calls scrollkeeper-update, but I didn't want to risk breaking anything
in case
As an interim solution, how about using a dpkg trigger to at least only
run scrollkeeper-update once per upgrade/install run?
I'll have a look at cooking up a patch for this over the weekend.

I just got a ubuntu-docs update and got hit my scrollkeeper. I don't use
any docs at all except man and google, I certainly don't want to
wait for this stuff to finish and I agree with previous posters that it
should run with low priority after all updates are finished. I have a

For the love of all that's beautiful and holy in this world, please get
rid of scrollkeeper! I have a 3.2GHz quad core CPU and it still runs
for 3 minutes! On my poor little PowerPC G3 scrollkeeper ran for
hours until the battery finally died. It's a blight on the Ubuntu
experience.

When i'm running large upgrades i just open another terminal and type:
$ watch -n 5 sudo killall scrollkeeper-update
This effectively keeps the scrollkeeper death from slowing the upgrade.

This bug should be marked high, I can't stand waiting 90+ minutes for
this to finish. I have a Pentium III machine and this well spoils my
ubuntu experience, I have to do sudo kilall scrollkeeper-update all the
time. Please remove this unwanted keeper away from ubuntu or we will
lose the low-end
please get this upgraded from wishlist status... scrollkeeper-update is
making updates take a ridiculously long time. it needs modifying so that
it only runs at the end of the update/upgrade and with the lowest
priority possible...

Uninstalling yelp sounds somewhat bad to me as several packages depend on it
:-)
But if you feel adventurous, you could try installing the rarian-compat package
which is listed as an alternative for scrollkeeper. The Gnome people already
list it as a build requirement (see
Just to echo what the others said, especially on old hardware
scrollkeeper takes way longer than it should have to. Since I don't
use yelp at all, my solution was a bit more comprehensive:
sudo dpkg -P yelp ; cd /usr/bin ; sudo mv scrollkeeper-update
scrollkeeper-update.REAL ; sudo ln -s
I did this ln -s /bin/true trick as well.

Looks like 'spoon' has been superseded since I last posted.
I found this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UseTheSpoon which looks
like spoon was/is being considered - perhaps a dev could take a look at
http://rarian.freedesktop.org/ ?

Yes, scrollkeeper is so slow I thought it was broken! I've been killing
it during upgrades so that they can complete. This is on a group of
550-650 mhz PIIIs.

Marking as confirmed, scrollkeeper may very well take minutes even on a
fast machine, and when installing Ubuntu on a slow machine it can take
even an hour (!).

Btw. as I haven't noticed any advantage from having scrollkeeper running, it is
currently disabled here, by moving /usr/bin/scrollkeeper-update away and
instead creating a dummy symlink instead, with:
ln -s /bin/true /usr/bin/scrollkeeper-update
Works fine so far :-)

Thanks for the Spoon hint. But it seems that that project will still
take some time to replace scrollkeeper.
So as my laptop is (yet again) being stuck during an update, and two
scrollkeeper-update processes are burning all CPU cycles, I'm wondering
if it's possible to completely disable
Yes, I agree. I often have to wait a long time for scrollkeeper to run.
I read that scrollkeeper is unmaintained and there is a project to
replace it named 'spoon'.
