Title:
  Yelp causes 100% CPU usage in Natty 32-Bit

Status in “yelp” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I noticed tonight that my system was at 100% CPU load, even though not
  much was running beyond the OS.  "top" shows the culprit to be "Yelp"
  which I opened earlier today.  As I found documented elsewhere, to
  reproduce the problem all you have to do is open a terminal window,
  press F1, then type anything you want in the search window and hit
  enter.  Then click on the "Gnome Terminal Manual" link and watch the
  CPU usage climb to 100%.  I'm not sure how I got the problem to happen
  initially, but that certainly brings it back.  Killing "yelp" takes
  CPU usage back to sane levels.
