I just noticed that you seem to be also the upstream contact for procps! Could you give me an estimate about a rough timeframe in which either a new procps release can happen or the patch you commited to procps git (thanks) could be backported to procps in Debian? I am wondering whether I should add a random patch to the test such that it ignores the non-zero exit for now or whether I should wait for procps to get fixed? The problem is not only in the mmdebstrap autopkgtest job but also in the jenkins job. The only test that fails is the one that calls kill with a negative PID: https://jenkins.debian.net/job/mmdebstrap-jenkins-worker/1554/console Thanks! cheers, josch
