Here's what I get: |

Starting Python Updater from 2.4 to 2.5 : |
10 |
check "soname" enabled. |
11 |
check "pylibdir" enabled. |
12 |
check "eclass" disabled. |
13 |
check "manual" enabled. |

It's on a high quality UPS. The Hard drive may have problems, but, I see |
22 |
no evidence of this. All else compiles and it runs fine, for long |
23 |
periods of time with no problems. The HD is less than 13% |
24 |
full.... |

I did the 'emerge -1 pax-utils' and |
30 |
when I launch python-updater scanelf runs fine as I watch it |
31 |
via top. |
32 |
|
33 |
When python-updater actually starts up, that's when the load goes |
34 |
to 3 or 4 and it just sleeps (as seen in top). |

Correct, eselect-python is not installed, so it should not run. |
43 |
I saw this in a bugs.gentoo.org thread and thought it might help. |
44 |
I do not think I even need this? (no python whiz here). |

nope, just cron and syslog messages. Nothing out of the ordinary.... |
