--- Begin Message ---Source: odyssey Version: 1.5.1~rc8-1 Usertags: pidof-without-procps Dear maintainer(s) of odyssey, it appears that odyssey uses `pidof` in its testsuite, or that at least one of its binary packages uses `pidof` at runtime. Historically, `pidof` was provided by the Essential package `sysvinit-tools`, making an explicit dependency unnecessary. However `pidof` will soon be moved to `procps` and will no longer be part of the Essential set. Please add an explicit dependency on `procps`: * via the `Depends:` field of all binary packages of odyssey that use `pidof` at runtime; * via the `Build-Depends:` field of odyssey, if `pidof` is used in tests run at build-time; * via the `Depends:` field of `debian/control/tests`, if `pidof` is used in autopkgtests. To prevent any disruption for users of odyssey, please add this dependency now, before `pidof` is moved from `sysvinit-utils` to `procps`. Alternatively, you could remove all uses of `pidof`. It is believed that odyssey uses `pidof` due to the following code snippets: ``` path: odyssey_1.5.1~rc3-1/test/functional/tests/online-restart/runner.sh fi after_restart_pid=$(pidof odyssey) if [ "$before_restart_pid" == "$after_restart_pid" ]; then path: odyssey_1.5.1~rc3-1/test/functional/tests/online-restart/runner.sh sleep 0.5 before_restart_pid=$(pidof odyssey) kill -sUSR2 "$before_restart_pid" || true path: odyssey_1.5.1~rc3-1/test/functional/tests/online-restart/runner.sh sleep 0.5 before_restart_pid=$(pidof odyssey) kill -sUSR2 $before_restart_pid path: odyssey_1.5.1~rc3-1/test/functional/tests/online-restart/runner.sh sleep 5 after_restart_pid=$(pidof odyssey) ps aux | grep odyssey path: odyssey_1.5.1~rc3-1/test/functional/tests/online-restart/runner.sh fi after_restart_pid=$(pidof odyssey) if [ "$before_restart_pid" == "$after_restart_pid" ]; then path: odyssey_1.5.1~rc3-1/test/functional/tests/online-restart/runner.sh echo "some trash" > /tests/online-restart/odyssey.conf before_restart_pid=$(pidof odyssey) kill -sUSR2 $(pidof odyssey) path: odyssey_1.5.1~rc3-1/test/functional/tests/rules_order/runner.sh cp /tests/rules_order/seq_1_reload.conf /tests/rules_order/seq_1.conf kill -sHUP $(pidof odyssey) sleep 2 path: odyssey_1.5.1~rc3-1/test/functional/tests/rules_order/runner.sh cp /tests/rules_order/not_seq_1_reload.conf /tests/rules_order/not_seq_1.conf kill -sHUP $(pidof odyssey) sleep 2 path: odyssey_1.5.1~rc3-1/test/functional/tests/reload/runner.sh echo 'unix_socket_mode "0777"' >> /tests/reload/conf.conf kill -s HUP $(pidof odyssey) psql 'host=localhost port=6432 dbname=postgres user=postgres' -c 'select 1' || { path: odyssey_1.5.1~rc3-1/test/functional/tests/reload-show-clients/runner.sh # there must be exactly one watchdog coroutine after config reload(s) # function od_storage_watchdog_watch is defined in storage.c if [ $(gdb -q --pid $(pidof odyssey) --batch -ex 'source /gdb.py' -ex 'info mmcoros' | grep -c 'od_storage_watchdog_watch') -ne 1 ] then echo "!!! expected only one lag polling coro after reloads !!!" path: odyssey_1.5.1~rc3-1/test/functional/tests/reload-show-clients/reloads.sh for run in {1..1000}; do kill -s HUP $(pidof odyssey) || exit 1 done path: odyssey_1.5.1~rc3-1/test/functional/tests/min_pool_size_reload/runner.sh # ensure min_pool_size are reloaded correctly sed -i 's/min_pool_size\ 5/min_pool_size\ 10/g' /tests/min_pool_size_reload/config.conf kill -sHUP $(pidof odyssey) sleep 1 path: odyssey_1.5.1~rc3-1/test/functional/tests/cascade/runner.sh /usr/bin/odyssey /tests/cascade/odyssey-gateway.conf sleep 1 gateway_pid=$(pidof odyssey) /usr/bin/odyssey /tests/cascade/odyssey-root1.conf ``` Feel free to close this issue if this is a false positive (for example if this code is in an unreachable code path).

We aren't using the parts with pidof as they require docker containers. (And even if that changes at some point, it's test-only so no user impact.) Thanks, Christoph
