Package: htop Version: 1.0.3-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
with the new "_apt" user in apt 1.1~exp3 (in Debian Experimental), I wanted to see what it does and started "htop -u _apt". I didn't see a single process. Then I tried it interactively: * Started "apt-get update" in one root shell * Started "htop" in another one, pressed "u", saw the "_apt" user there, selected it Again I saw no processes listed. The I pressed "u" again, selected "All Users" and still -- no processes shown at all. Then I started "htop -u _apt" again, pressed "u", selected "All Users" and still: No processes shown at all. I tried the latter as root as well as normal user, inside a screen session (as root) as well as outside a screen session (as normal user). I also noticed that when selecting "All users" in the above cases, the terminal bell rings (^G). Conclusion: As soon as the view is reduced to all processes of a user which starts with an underscore, something is broken in htop. P.S.: ps auxw | fgrep _apt indeed showed a bunch of processes, so it's definitely htop, not apt. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (600, 'testing'), (110, 'experimental'), (109, 'buildd-unstable'), (109, 'buildd-experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages htop depends on: ii libc6 2.19-11 ii libncursesw5 5.9+20140913-1 ii libtinfo5 5.9+20140913-1 htop recommends no packages.
