Bug#590537: offlineimap dies under many situations

[Rogério Brito <rbrito@ime.usp.br>]

Hi.

Or should I say "ping"?

Unfortunately, it seems that offlineimap is very sensitive to many
situations and dies quite frequently. I suspect that, aside from the
"die always", it may also be under some deadlock situations (or would
that be the "new" python 2.6 that is in sid)?

Apart from dying frequently, I usually have to interrupt offlineimap
when it gets my CPU usage to 100% and it stops communicating with the
network. I tried to strace it during one of those times when it was
pegging the CPU and I could see many select calls being issued, but no
progress being done.

I can give any further information, if necessary. Just let me know what.


Regards,
