Package: xbindkeys
Version: 1.8.3-1
Severity: important

An strace of xbindkeys shows that it wakes up 10 times a second to look for
a non-existent config file:

read(3, 0x2641764, 4096)                = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily 
unavailable)
stat("/home/vorlon/.xbindkeysrc.scm", 0x7fff207f4270) = -1 ENOENT (No such file 
or directory)
nanosleep({0, 100000000}, NULL)         = 0
read(3, 0x2641764, 4096)                = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily 
unavailable)
stat("/home/vorlon/.xbindkeysrc.scm", 0x7fff207f4270) = -1 ENOENT (No such file 
or directory)
nanosleep({0, 100000000}, NULL)         = 0
read(3, 0x2641764, 4096)                = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily 
unavailable)
stat("/home/vorlon/.xbindkeysrc.scm", 0x7fff207f4270) = -1 ENOENT (No such file 
or directory)
nanosleep({0, 100000000}, NULL)         = 0
read(3, 0x2641764, 4096)                = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily 
unavailable)
stat("/home/vorlon/.xbindkeysrc.scm", 0x7fff207f4270) = -1 ENOENT (No such file 
or directory)
nanosleep({0, 100000000}, ^C <unfinished ...>

*Creating* an empty file there doesn't stop it from doing this, either.
This was annoying to discover on my laptop - that's a big waste of power for
a program that I actually interact with an average of once a month.
