Actually its not ps, its libsystemd that is pulling this dependency in. ps is linked to libsystemd which is in /lib and $ ldd /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsystemd.so | grep usr liblz4.so.1 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblz4.so.1 (0x00007fa2cf300000)
There is also this on the systemd bug https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=843809 I am not sure at this point where to go, but it is either intentional or a bug, but its not ps' bug. - Craig On Thu, Nov 24, 2016 at 7:42 AM Klaus Ethgen <kl...@ethgen.de> wrote: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA512 > > Package: procps > Version: 2:3.3.12-3 > Severity: critical > > ps is depending on /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblz4.so.1.
