Package: psmisc Version: 23.2-1 Severity: normal control: notfound -1 23.1-1
Dear Maintainer,
killall stopped handling long command names:
| $ cat averylongcommandname
| #!/bin/sh
| sleep 1h
| $ ./averylongcommandname &
| [1] 25467
| $ killall -CONT averylongcommandname
| averylongcommandname: no process found
| $ killall -CONT averylongcomman
| $
versions prior to 23.2-1 had the reverse, much more useful, behaviour:
| $ for i in psmisc_2* ; do echo "$i:" ; ./"$i"/data/usr/bin/killall -CONT
averylongcommandname ; echo $? ; ./"$i"/data/usr/bin/killall -CONT
averylongcomman ; echo $? ; done
| psmisc_22.21-2.1+b2_amd64:
| 0
| averylongcomman: no process found
| 1
| psmisc_23.0-1_amd64:
| sending signal 18 to procs
| 0
| sending signal 18 to procs
| averylongcomman: no process found

| psmisc_23.1-1_amd64:

| averylongcomman: no process found
| 1
| psmisc_23.2-1_amd64:

Please fix :)
thanks for maintaining psmisc,
