Package: psmisc
Version: 22.13-1
Severity: normal
Attempting to use --older-than or --younger-than often triggers the
following error:
killall: killall.c:386: kill_all: Assertion `process_age_sec > 0' failed.
Aborted
This is probably due to a slight skew, where newborn processes may
appear to have a slightly negative age.

force process age >= 0
sometimes some small numbers would hit an assert around process age,
this fix just makes really young processes have an age of 0
