Package: expect
Version: 5.44.1.15-1
Severity: important
On kfreebsd-* spawn/wait does not work as expected:
----------------
ametz...@asdfasdf:$ cat /tmp/FIND/expect.bug
#!/usr/bin/expect -f
eval echo blubb
wait
ametz...@asdfasdf:$ /tmp/FIND/expect.bug

I suspect this should be an rc bug, please raise the severity if you agree.

Hi!
I'm closing this bugreport as invalid. [wait] behavior in Expect
reflects the underlying Linux or FreeBSD kernel differences.
Cheers!
