[Users] cat: /proc/self/mountinfo: Cannot allocate memory

Hi,

I am trying updatedb on a gentoo openvz container, the HN is a debian
squeeze kernel.

Updatedb segfaults, and when I strace it, I find that:

# cat /proc/self/mountinfo
cat: /proc/self/mountinfo: Cannot allocate memory

Any idea how to fix that?

There is a bug filed here:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=655385

But I have no idea how to fix it.

Best,

"In July 2005, after several failed attempts to legalise software
patents in Europe, the patent establishment changed its strategy.
Instead of explicitly seeking to sanction the patentability of
software, they are now seeking to create a central European patent
court, which would establish and enforce patentability rules in their
favor, without any possibility of correction by competing courts or
democratically elected legislators."
