Package: psmisc Version: 22.15-2 Severity: critical Justification: breaks unrelated software
The killall command in psmisc 22.15-2 is broken: it can't find processes with long names. The version in 22.13-1 works fine. I first saw this on a VM cluster which uses pacemaker and DLM. Pacemaker's DLM scripts run 'killall -0 dlm_controld.pcmk' which fails to find the process. Pidof and pgrep work fine. This is easily reproducible on any system with consolekit installed: tarquin ~ # pidof console-kit-daemon 4851 tarquin ~ # pgrep console-kit 4851 tarquin ~ # killall -0 console-kit-daemon console-kit-daemon: no process found Cheers, Chris -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages psmisc depends on: ii libc6 2.13-26 ii libtinfo5 5.9-4 psmisc recommends no packages. psmisc suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
