 Installing [wiki:pkg-sip sip] with [wiki:pkg-apt apt] the computer appears
 to hang during postinstall at the textreplace stage. Cpu usage is low,
 around 12%, and python.exe memory use climbs slowly but inevitably until
 it errors out tens of minutes later.

 I've encountered this once or twice before but didn't pause to document
 it. I don't recall if it's always with the same package, or even always
 textreplace (a vague recollection of dll-dupes). Running textreplace
 manually on sipconfig.py.tmpl from o4w shell returns in seconds.

 Host system is win7x64. Same results with apt from svn and package.
