lots of apt-cache processes

Thu Dec 06, 2012 11:57 pm

Often X freezes. I check with "ps -ax | grep apt" and see lots of "apt-cache ***" processes running,
looks like they get more.

I got nothing in apt.conf or preferences, startup-applications doesn't contain anything relevant (in fact nothing fancy at all, default stuff).

Any ideas how to troubleshoot it?

I soon will reinstall, i want to have a refracta installation on real _and_ fast hardware and the daily ride too.
It's not a biggie, but i would like to know how this might happen.

The PC is getting old. That might be the reason too (i would not know what,
but it often does strange things).
If someone has got a good idea: good.
