Package: procps
Version: 3.2.7-11
When using ps or top on a vps debian server pids > 65535 do not display.
Recompiling procps with -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 solved this issue on that
particular machine. The errors source is a readdir() call in
readproc.c:simple_readproc(). I thought it might just be a quirk of the
machine, but since the ls application could correctly readdir() and find these
pids i thought the ps command should be able to as well.
