Package: packagesearch When I started packagesearch the first time in a multiarch Debian/Sid chroot (including the usual mounts) as root, it complained that the xapian index was not generated and offered to generate it. The systems CPU usage raised to 100% and nothing user visible happend in the one or two minutes I waited, neither in the GUI nor on the terminal I used to start packagesearch.
The output of ps axuf contained: | root 16779 85.2 0.3 377520 19780 pts/22 Rl+ 13:51 1:25 | | \_ packagesearch | root 16784 0.0 0.0 0 0 pts/22 Z+ 13:52 0:00 | | \_ [packagesearch] <defunct> | root 16785 0.0 0.0 148796 3712 pts/29 Ss+ 13:52 0:00 | \_ /bin/zsh I saw no process that seemed to be related to xapian or apt. If I just did not wait long enough and missed the xapian process, then there are still two issues: * PID 16784 was a zombie. * There should be something user visible whilst the xapian cache is generated, or at least the user notice should be noticed that generating the cache might take some minutes. After manually invoking /usr/sbin/update-apt-xapian-index --update, packagesearch started as expected.
