And again.
After the first time I rebuilt the newsbeuter package with
DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nostrip.

Now it's hanging again (actually about the third time in a row).
Unfortunately I'm a gdb noob; what I've tried is:

$ gdb
(gdb) attach 2000
Attaching to process 2000

Reading symbols from /lib/i686/cmov/libpthread.so.0...(no debugging

Does this help in any way?

Since this evening the memory leak+hang happens quite often I'm happy
to do more debugging if someone can lend me a helping hand :)

Cheers,
gregor
