Hello Guido, Thank you for opening this bug and helping make Ubuntu better.
As far as I can remember, Ubuntu has been using kill from the procps package, not coreutils. On Cosmic and 16.04 (the only machines I have access to right now), /bin/kill is being provided by procps: cerdea@piatam:$ dpkg -L coreutils|grep kill 1 $ dpkg -L procps|grep kill /bin/kill /usr/bin/skill /usr/share/man/man1/kill.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/skill.1.gz /usr/bin/pkill /usr/share/man/man1/pkill.1.gz It is probable that this is also your case, but before changing the package in the bug I would like you to check. * man kill should tell you if it is coreutils or not; * apt-file search bin/kill will return you all packages that deploy "bin/kill" (note that we are only looking for /bin/kill). Please report back, and we will then act as needed. ** Changed in: coreutils (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1791983 Title: kill -TERM exitcode regression 16.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/coreutils/+bug/1791983/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
