Package: screen Version: 4.1.0~20120320gitdb59704-7 Severity: normal -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
In squeeze, doing the following caused a screen window to close promptly: sleep 1000 & exit However, in wheezy, it hangs for a few seconds (not 1000 seconds) before closing. Troubleshooting this points to backgrounded processes that have file descriptors open to the pty. When they are closed as below, the screen window will close promptly: </dev/null sleep 1000 >/dev/null 2>&1 & exit As I use screen to launch new GUI apps in the background and immediately close the window, this makes it a bit disconcerting when it stays around for a while in the window list. - -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'oldstable-updates'), (500, 'oldstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.9.5+ (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages screen depends on: ii dpkg 1.16.10 ii install-info 4.13a.dfsg.1-10 ii libc6 2.13-38 ii libpam0g 1.1.3-7.1 ii libtinfo5 5.9-10 screen recommends no packages.
