I enjoy the game of `hunt' now and then, as does everyone, I suspect. Recently, however, huntd has mysteriously stopped working as it should; it complains that my hunt version is mismatched, eg; celtic@xyrias:~$ hunt Enter your code name: celtic Enter your team (0-9 or nothing): 0 hunt: Version number mismatch. No go. celtic@xyrias:~$ I thought nothing of this, and SSHd into my friend's box where we happily hunted. *However*. Be very careful. A few hours after I tried to play hunt unsuccessfully, I noted that, whilst playing Stepmania (a graphically and audiably hardware-intensive game), everything was very, very lagged. I struggled to see why; updatedb wasn't running, nothing was processing in the background. Then I ran top.  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND 16956 celtic    25   0  112m  30m 8420 R 49.4  3.1   0:23.98 stepmania 9133 celtic    25   0  2820  548  444 R 47.4  0.1 219:18.50 huntd If you read correctly, that's huntd consuming almost half of the AMD Athlon64 3200+, using 219 minutes of CPU time while it's been open; not even anyone on the server (my workstation is personal). I'm not quite sure what kind of bug this is, but this message is a warning; be careful with hunt! </blockquote> Could you file a bug? One of the developers may be able to help you with that.
