Bug#478233: xbase-clients: xmodmap saturates memory
Package: xbase-clients
Version: 1:7.1.ds1-2
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system
For unknown reason consecutive calls to xmodmap with a file arguement causes the system memory to
grow.
Making a loop program in a shell to call xmodmap will perform an out of memory
of the system.
looks like xmodmap has got leak memory problem ...
