All,
In Thunderbird 128.3.3esr if I check the RSS Recent Package feed from Arch,
Thunderbird hangs showing the check is continually ongoing and never finishes.
This takes a continual 143% CPU (about 1/3 of the 4-core i-7)
It gets the Recent Packages just fine, but never stops.
To close this out, I did get it fixed. The following seems to have been the
issue. After working fine for several years, the "Recent packages feed" would
hang continually checking itself.
Original Setup:
Recent packages folder
https://archlinux.org/feeds/packages/
- folder for Core-testing
- folder for Extra-testing
A few weeks ago, due to a change somewhere, likely the 115 - 128 esr
Thunderbird updates, this problem occurs. (behaves like infinite recursion
began happening) To solve the issue, I have the same setup, but now I've changed:
archlinux.org/feeds/packages/
to
archlinux.org/feeds/packages/all/stable-repos/
Core and Extra Testing remain folders thereunder. Behavior is now identical to
the original and the hang is gone.
