Package: procps Version: 1:3.2.7-3 Severity: normal
On Etch, i386 machines properly sort processes by their start time while amd64 strictly orders them by their PID. "Wrapped" processes thus show up somewhere else than at the end of the process list. To reproduce: Run "ps auxw" often enough (for example, in a "watch" loop) to force a PID wrap-around, then run "ps auxw" again and check the order. A colleague tells me that Ubuntu Hardy on i386 has the problem, too, and AFAICT it's not kernel-related (2.6.17 kernel shows this too) -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.24.2-hexe-smp Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages procps depends on: ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13etch5 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libncurses5 5.5-5 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii lsb-base 3.1-23.2etch1 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip Versions of packages procps recommends: ii psmisc 22.3-1 Utilities that use the proc filesy -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
