Hi,

what's the status of this bug ?

This bug is still present in etch and breaks init scripts which use
killproc() function from lsb-base (like #407929).

killproc() from lsb-base is just a frontend to start-stop-daemon.

As it has been said in previous comments for this bug, Samuel
Thibault's patch (#157305) mostly fix this wrong behaviour.

Is it planed to merge his patch ?

this command shows how to reproduce the bug :

xclock & echo $! > /tmp/xclock.pid && sleep 2 &&
/sbin/start-stop-daemon --stop --pidfile /tmp/xclock.pid --retry 5

cheers,
