Package: procps Version: 2:3.3.9-9 Severity: normal In procps/wheezy, the combination of the '-l' and '-f' flags had a specific output, which IIRC was the same across *BSD, Solaris, and many versions of GNU/Linux:
$ pgrep -lf iceweasel 6543 iceweasel --no-remote In jessie, the behaviour has changed, and the '-a' flag was added to restore the previous output format: $ pgrep -lf iceweasel 6543 iceweasel Wouldn't it be more convenient to _add_ an option to change the behaviour according to #526355, instead of changing the result of pre-existing options? -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.0 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-686-pae (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages procps depends on: ii initscripts 2.88dsf-59 ii libc6 2.19-18 ii libncurses5 5.9+20140913-1+b1 ii libncursesw5 5.9+20140913-1+b1 ii libprocps3 2:3.3.9-9 ii libtinfo5 5.9+20140913-1+b1 ii lsb-base 4.1+Debian13+nmu1 Versions of packages procps recommends: ii psmisc 22.21-2 procps suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
