Package: procps
Version: 1:3.3.3-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
/bin/kill -9 -1 does not work (at least as documented in manpage)
I get the following answer:
/bin/kill: invalid option -- '1'
Usage:
kill [options] <pid> [...]
Options:
<pid> [...] send signal to every <pid> listed
-<signal>, -s, --signal <signal>
specify the <signal> to be sent
-l, --list=[<signal>] list all signal names, or convert one to a name
-L, --table list all signal names in a nice table
-h, --help display this help and exit
-V, --version output version information and exit
For more details see kill(1)
note that this is related to options parsing since
/bin/kill -9 -- -1 does the job
