Package: procps
Version: 2:3.3.17-6
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
the indicated version of procps ships an executable named pidwait. This is
renamed from pwait as generated from the upstream build by the Debian build
script.
Running pidwait, however, behaves as pgrep from the same package. This is
because the executable derives its behaviour from the name by which it is
started. The pwait behaviour is triggered by launching it with a name of
pwait; renaming /usr/bin/pidwait to /usr/bin/pwait restores correct
behaviour. I.e. the check has not been adapted in the sources to reflect the
renaming
by the Debian build script.
I would expect pwait to be named pwait, or at least pidwait to behave as
pwait.
