Oh, and in addition I don't see why mandb processing really needs to be synchronous, once it gets switched to interest-noawait (after squeeze is out), it could maybe also be switched to do the processing in the background? This does not reduce the amount of wasteful work done, though. thanks, guillem -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
