@Christian: I don't think so, these were apparently fixed in etckeeper 0.56ubuntu2.1 which is the version I'm running and I still see the problem.
I've actually been able to trace the problem to $VCS subprocess launched by etckeeper hanging when trying to write to stdout/stderr. What is happening in my case is: /etc/etckeeper/commit.d/50vcs-commit is trying to determine the username and runs bzr whoami, this process hangs and strace shows: Process 7327 attached - interrupt to quit write(2, "bzr: ERROR: Unable to determine "..., 139 This would also happen if it got through to actually running $VCS commit, I think. I haven't checked yet what qaptworker does with stdout/stderr of launched sub-processes, but I did notice it allocates a pty. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to qapt in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/840306 Title: Muon hangs when using etckeeper To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qapt/+bug/840306/+subscriptions -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
