Description Robert Cole 2002-07-20 00:04:18 UTC

htdig hangs when generating an initial database with 100% utililization on the CPU.

I've only confirmed this with a couple of people that have this same problem but
one other person I talked to said they got thru it ok after a long time. 

I've been unable to get anyone else to confirm this problem but the easy way out
was to use glimpse so I would recommend that htdig be removed from the ebuild
and glimpse put in if your able to reproduce this problem. I can reproduce it
anytime. It's consistant for me.

I "investigated" and found out that rundig actually tried to index www.htdig.org. It would therefore fail or take a long tmie depending on your network connection. This is of course very bad and I've removed the rundig call from the ebuild, thanks for reporting this.  BTW, I can't replace the htdig dep in kdevelop with lgimpse because glimpse has an educational-only license.
