Re: psdatabase in /

[Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@datasync.com>]

Hi,
	psdatabase is used by programs like ps (for the WCHAN field)
 and top. Newer versions of ps can look at the System.map file,
 though, so newer (unstable) versions of the kernel-package no longer
 create psdatabases.

	Hope this helps,

	manoj
