For some reason, when i do a "rug ref" from the command line, or use the "zen-updater" from the kde desktop. It takes several hours to complete. Running "top" I noticed that "parse-metadata" seems to be the first job, followed by "update-status". They both seem to consume a lot of CPU. I have opensuse 10.2 x86_64 running on my AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3400.
Hl all.
Finally, I bit the bullet and upgraded to 10.2 (64-bit). I was expecting I would have to reinstall a few packages, such as MPlayer and the nvidia drivers, so I don't count them as problems. The problems I am seeing are two:
(1) For some reason, rpm seems to consume over 99% of the CPU time. I have to kill it manually. (2) If I invoke yast from inside KDE as a normal user, yast does not seem to recognize the root password, but if I su to the root account from the command line, the very same password is recognized (as it should).
Any ideas? TIA.
