Dear Maintainer,
'pgrep -lf' no longer prints the full command line of matching
processes. This is a regression since wheezy, and caused by the fix for
#526355 (upstream commit f12277c74d591245767d77badb6bb6af91335656)
Example: given a process with the command line:
/usr/sbin/ntpd -p /var/run/ntpd.pid -g -u 103:107
The expected behavior, and behavior in wheezy as well as Solaris and its
derivatives is:
% pgrep -lf ntpd.pid
6272 /usr/sbin/ntpd -p /var/run/ntpd.pid -g -u 115:122
but in jessie:
% pgrep -lf ntpd.pid
1687 ntpd
Incidentally, the manual page for pgrep includes the following:
STANDARDS
pkill and pgrep were introduced in Sun's Solaris 7. This
implementation is fully compatible.
