Package: procps
Version: 1:3.2.7-3
Severity: normal
Hi,
the default sort order has changed from "start time" to "pid" recently.
This could be caused by a kernel change between 2.6.18 and 2.6.21.
I'd prefer ps to sort it's output by start time again, so the most
recent process is at the end of the list, again.
Andreas
