mandb gets stuck!
Hello,
A few weeks ago, perhaps, I upgraded something on my woody box - and
now I can't satisfy the mandb gods. Mandb runs through cron.weekly
until I kill it - for a few days. I tried to run it manually to
create a db from scratch, but the same thing - it gets stuck.
Here's the tail of the log (mandb -d -c):
free_hashtab: 2088 entries, 1301 (62%) unique
done.
catpath: /var/cache/man, manpath: /usr/share/man
Testing for existence: /usr/share/man/man1/ps.1
create_db(/usr/local/man): /var/cache/man/oldlocal/20219
Testing /usr/local/man for new files
catpath: /var/cache/man/oldlocal, manpath: /usr/local/man
It's been sitting like this for at least 12 hours... Any ideas?
--ET.
