Package: kicad
Version: 0.0.20080825c-1
Severity: important
After starting kicad (without a project) it recursively lists the whole working
directory. If the current directory is a quite large home directory, it eats up
all RAM.
If the current directory is empty or not really full, there is no problem. This
error is not present in the stable version (0.0.20071129a-1).
Removing .kicad and .kicad_common doesn't help.
Here is a part of strace's output when kicad is started in /home/max:
...
getcwd("/home/max"..., 1024) = 14
open("/home/max", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = 6
fstat64(6, {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=12288, ...}) = 0
lseek(6, 0, SEEK_SET) = 0
getdents64(6, /* 113 entries */, 4096) = 4080
stat64("/home/max/.kpackage", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
open("/home/max/.kpackage",
O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = 8
fstat64(8, {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
lseek(8, 0, SEEK_SET) = 0
getdents64(8, /* 3 entries */, 4096) = 72
stat64("/home/max/.kpackage/dir", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
