Public bug reported:
This is very similar to bug #268084 except that I get the following
trace:
remote: Traceback (most recent call last):

remote: res = ui.do_action(pr.action, "", "", pr.force)

under_ssh
remote: raise ValueError(err_msg)
remote: ValueError: Couldn't find parent pid for '16072'
Looking at the code, I found the cause of the error.
The file /proc/16072/stat contains:
16072 (redo-ifchange a) S 16060 15734 15734 0 -1 4202496 1463 0 0 0 2 0
0 0 20 0 1 0 77092203 9498624 1113 4294967295 134512640 136961996
3219574064 3219534684 4118799382 0 0 16781318 0 0 0 0 17 2 0 0 0 0 0
And the code contains in ufw/util.py line 372:
ppid = file(name).readlines()[0].split()[3]
Of course the index [3] fails in this case because of the space in
"(redo-ifchange a)". I believe this is the argv[0] of the program,
modified using the setproctitle python module. This is clearly a parsing
error and should be fixed.
Alternatively, I used the --force option, so I don't even know why this
was checked.
