I used cmaptools a lot, but I can't use it anymore for unknown reasons. It simply uses 100% of my CPU and I've seen it using more than 4GB of RAM when nothing was even open (I have 16GB). So yeah, after a java reinstall and cmap reinstall, without any sucess, I gave up.
I tried to report but it seems like impossible, as Antonio Rojas (arojas) claims it is not the_silver_searcher issue, but exactly that package gave the error during installation. He does not look into report and just closes issues. Also he says, like it is MY issue, but I just mentioned, that cannot install due fatal bug. It seems like cmaptools cannot be installed since March, 2020 already, today is already the end of November, 2021... Although CmapTools is a lot used in academic world and very much needed. Well, we need to go manual. I don't have these skills to package here anything.
