Package: timeout Version: 1.18-3 Severity: important
Hi, Recently I noted about a different behaviour in one of my scripts. I exec: timeout 1700 zenity --entry --text "What are you doing" echo -e "Cat1\nCat2" | zenity --list --text "Category" --column "category" Time before, second question was asked inmediately after first command was completed (after fill zenity question). Now with this newer timoeut I have to wait 1700 seconds ... It would be great about have a option to terminate the program when command finish and not after time parameter seconds. If this issue is the searched, please document it on NEWS or similar file. An example: ~/empty$ timeout 10 ls j...@pepinux:~/empty$ ps aux | grep timeout javi 32111 0.0 0.0 1636 124 pts/3 S 12:12 0:00 timeout 10 ls Thank you very much -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.29-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=es_ES.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=es_ES.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages timeout depends on: ii libc6 2.9-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries timeout recommends no packages. timeout suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
