iptstate kept running and taking cpu resourses even after I have closed the terminal... I had to kill it

[PresuntoRJ]

Binary package hint: iptstate

I was running iptstate in a gnome-terminal tab to monitor some activities, and when I have closed those terminals (after my tests) I have notice a 50% or so use of the CPU while the system was supposedly in stand by (mostly idle, on the nautilus was opened)

a quick look at top has shown me iptstate was using it... which as odd by itself to use that much CPU on my system, even worse, since I had already closed it and it was not supposed to be running any more any way; I think

I had run it under sudo, which could be the root cause of the issue... not sure

after I had it $ sudo kill (pid) it died quietly and the system was idle again

I am able to reproduce this at will, cause it hapens every time I do it again in my system...

I am not sure with logs or tests to do, but feel free to ask and I will sure try them out and send whatever necessary.

although it was not happening to me before, it looks very similar to bug #234753... could be the same root problem

There is no support on such deprecated version; that one has died long time ago.
