Package: earlyoom Version: 1.7-1 Severity: wishlist The default settings, even when applying the suggestions, can easily cause everything in a desktop session to be killed indirectly: I've repeatedly seen dbus-daemon falling victim to earlyoom, which does succeed in freeing a lot of memory, but has the side effect of taking firefox, xfce4-terminal and a bunch of other processes down with it.
I suggest that dbus-daemon be included in the --avoid list offered in /etc/default/earlyoom, and possibly even be enabled by default. -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.15.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_WARN, TAINT_CRAP Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages earlyoom depends on: ii init-system-helpers 1.62 ii libc6 2.33-7 ii lsb-base 11.1.0 earlyoom recommends no packages. earlyoom suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
