Backporting a new upstream release to a stable release is not usually what we want (it might introduce new bugs). However, in this case we have a small patch which can be backported to the current version in Bionic. This seems to be what we need:
https://gitlab.com/psmisc/psmisc/-/commit/38829585c4f5b67c8c2a8c But as discussed above there is an easy workaround to "fix" this issue, so the priority for us is low. If you are willing to contribute to Ubuntu preparing a patch to apply this upstream commit to Bionic we could try to SRU (Stable Release Update) it. ** Also affects: psmisc (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: psmisc (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: psmisc (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided => Low -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1790732 Title: killall unable to find privileged processes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/psmisc/+bug/1790732/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
