I purged this package and found no problems with Synaptic or Software Centre. However the update-apt-xapi process always used to cause my (single core Intel Celeron) computer to run so slowly as to be unusable (on Ubuntu 11.10).
I think this package should not be included in the default installation as it does not seem to provide any benefit. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/655831 Title: update-apt-xapian-index bogs down system To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/apt-xapian-index/+bug/655831/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
