Surprise! We don't need psdatabase any longer. From the "ps" man page:
WCHAN
Name (if a valid kernel symbol table can be found) or
address of the kernel wait channel the process is
sleeping in. For the kernel symbol table libproc
scans the following files:
$PS_SYSTEM_MAP
/boot/System.map-`uname -r`
/boot/System.map
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/System.map
/etc/psdatabase
/boot/psdatabase-`uname -r`
/boot/psdatabase,
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/psdatabase
So usually you don't have to use psupdate if you
install the map link file from the kernel.
So, we can flush the uncompressed kernel and the psdatabase generation
from kernel-package.
Thanks
