Patchfile
Hello,
the current version of killall(1) does not allow sending signals to processes
attached to a pts(4) e.g /dev/pts/4 and to do so results in an error messages
like the one below.
#killall -t pts/4
killall: stat(/dev/ttypts/4): No such file or directory
The provided patch would enable the ability to do that.
Best regards
Daniel Dowse
