Bug Description

Looking at the following error:

https://errors.ubuntu.com/bucket/?id=/usr/sbin/update-apt-xapian-index:DatabaseLockError:%3Cmodule%3E:rebuild:buildIndex:__init__

We see this key(?):

rebuild
buildIndex
__init__

However, if you look at the individual tracebacks we can see the following:

DatabaseLockError: Unable to get write lock on /var/cache/apt-xapian-index/index.2: Couldn't fork: Cannot allocate memory

This particular error is linked to bug 764701 which actually ends with the message:

DatabaseLockError: Unable to get write lock on /var/cache/apt-xapian-index/index.2: already locked

I didn't go through all of the individual errors but I would not be surprised if some of them did end due to being unable to allocate memory.
