Bug Description

abentley describes the problem in http://launchpadlibrarian.net/73984594/lyx-outline-devel-lyx-lyx_2.0.x.log that started the subsequent problems discussed in https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/162573 :

"This looks like a timeout. The import system kills timed-out workers with SIGINT. I think what's happening is that repacking is taking too long and not giving enough progress updates, so the import system concludes that it's hung."

abentley said that there is another bug here: the inability to continue after the repack timeout. I'm not filing that one because I'm not sure I agree it is separate, but I record it here for posterity. Someone addressing the bug can decide what to do with this part of it then.
