[VERIFICATION DISCO] I have installed the disco-proposed 'procps' package and was able to conclude that it fixes the situation based on the reproducer suggested upstream: $ vi $(seq 1 1250| paste -s -d'_')_foo.txt # Creating a process containing > 4096 chars, to be precise 5158 chars) $ pgrep -af 'foo.txt' 1148 vi

Hello Pedro, or anyone else affected, Accepted procps into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/procps/2:3.3.12-3ubuntu1.2 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository. Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from verification-needed-bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-bionic. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B.

Ok, change seems to be trivial enough to accept even without getting this merged upstream (most important is that there was no disagreement so far from the maintainers). I also don't expect anything to go bad since the constant bump is not too big anyway. ** Changed in: procps (Ubuntu Disco) Status: In Progress => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-disco -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to procps in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1839329 Title: pgrep: allows long command lines to be searched e.g. java process with long classpath Status in procps package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in procps source package in Xenial: In Progress Status in procps source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Status in procps source package in Disco: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] The pgrep -f and pkill -f commands are unable to find processes strings in processes which are beyond the 4096th character.
