Package: base Severity: normal There is no documentation within the procps package or the wiki on how to modify /proc mount options on Jessie. There is no /proc entry in /etc/fstab.
The correct way appears to be to add the /proc entry to fstab. Please add documentation that describes the official way to modify /proc mount options. This will be especially important once /proc is being mounted with hidepid by default, as a lot of users will probably want to know how to go back to the old behavior. root@localhost /usr/share/doc/procps# zgrep -i hidepid * root@localhost /usr/share/doc/procps# zgrep -i hidepid */* root@localhost /usr/share/doc/procps# zgrep -i mount * changelog.Debian.gz: before /usr/ is mounted (Closes: #548802). changelog.Debian.gz: * Doesn't segfault if /proc not mounted Closes: #172735 changelog.Debian.gz: * - stop crashes with unmounted /proc Closes: #63512, #55177 changelog.Debian.gz: * Stop crashes with umounted /proc Closes: #63512, #55177 changelog.gz: libproc-ng: prettyfy proc mount messages changelog.gz:ps: detect broken OS install w/o /proc mounted #172735 README.top.gz: . 378695, seg fault if "/proc" is not mounted TODO.gz:code as much as the kernel can support.
