[Bug 1540830] Re: After Plasma 5.5.3 - apt-check causes massive load / creates 100's of processes

2020-09-25 Thread Jackson Doak
I cant reproduce this on kubuntu 20.10 and all supported releases either
are from before the bug was introduced or well after it was fixed,
marking as fixed unless someone reproduces this on a current version

I can also confirm this bug. Muon spawns an infinte number of apt-check

I would consider this bug extremely severe, as it massively spoils a systems 
stability and performance.

The problem occurs with Ubuntu 15.10 when upgrading with ppa:kubuntu-
ppa/backports to muon version 5.5.3.

here too. muonupdater 5.5.3 and about 60 apt-check processes within

this is a fork bomb triggerd by every update.

can be stopped by "killall apt-check" (if you are fast enough)

I suggest upgrading the severity of this bug to critical, as it's
basically a system crasher.

Tried to turn off auto-updates but it didn't help so i had to remove the 
plasma-discover packages.
I first removed the muon-discover stuff, but it turned out they were the wrong 
ones.

I strongly concur to the previous post. With plasma-discover installed
any apt-get update thrashes my system to a crashing halt (if I'm not

[Bug 1540830] Re: After Plasma 5.5.3 - apt-check causes massive load / creates 100's of processes

2016-03-01 Thread amichair
According to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=358359 the fix is
included in upstream 5.5.5 release scheduled for today.

According to https://askubuntu.com/questions/230553/how-to-prevent-so-
many-instances-of-apt-check-running a similar issue has been around for
years. Perhaps the original script should be fixed as well before it
happens again.

For now, I run apt-get while monitoring htop and if I see apt-check
going out of control I pkill it.

I hope a fix will be backported to 15.10 ASAP.

It fixed upsteam I believe just not in the Kubuntu PPA.

More reason to use KDE Neon when it is stable (if we were we would already
have the fix)

2016-02-18 Thread bamyasi
Just to make sure: Today's update-notifier-common update to version
3.163.1 which arrived via Kubuntu Backports PPA did not fix the problem
for me on my Kubuntu 15.10 system with Plasma 5.5.3. Apt-get update
command still spawns hundreds of rough apt-check processes which eat up
all memory and CPU on my desktop.

I set the attached shell script to start automatically when I log in and
it mitigated the problem for me. It checks every 5 seconds for running
apt-check processes and terminates them. Of course, use it at your own
risk, I can't guarantee that it will have no unexpected side effects ;)

This bugs renders my system almost unusable... regularly it will start
spawning 10s (or 100s?) of apt-check processes which grind the system to
a hold until it runs out of memory and starts killing random user
processes.

** Description changed:

  Since upgrading to Plasma 5.5.3 (via 15.10 backports PPA) every morning
  my machine is unusable.
  
  This morning the load was over 100 on my desktop - there were hundreds
  of apt-check processes, plasma had completely crashed bar one konsole
  window.
  
  I have to sysRq to reboot...
  
  Looks like others are having similar issues
