I can confirm this with apt-index-watcher 0.3.9ubuntu4. Every couple of seconds two processes like
6927 ? S 0:00 sh -c /usr/sbin/apt-index-watcher run --syslog 6928 ? R 0:02 /usr/sbin/apt-index-watcher run --syslog use all available cpu power. ** Changed in: libapt-front (Ubuntu) Status: Unconfirmed => Confirmed -- apt-index-watcher uses way too much system ressources https://launchpad.net/bugs/64531 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
