Same Bus error (core dumped) as before when running manual expire.
When I make another try it hogs, and is still doing so after 5 minutes. But
this time I'll wait at least 30 minutes, just to make sure.
And just to make it clear; the spamd daemon is not running while I do manual
expire.
One thing you could try is running db4_recover (or db_recover,
depending on how it's installed) on the Bayes database.
You would want to make sure nothing at all is using the database
while you did that. You might also check for a leftover,
bogus lock file. I don't know off the top of my head whether
Berkeley DB does lock files (or some other lock mechanism),
but if it does and the system had crashed at some point, it
might've left behind a bogus lock file that needs to be removed
manually.
