The previous comment doesn't seem to contain a correct attempt to reproduce the originally reported problem. Creating a thread and looking up its task id is a critical step in reproducing the issue. The bug manifests when sending a signal to a task id.
Also, I don't think this is a Python bug. I used Python to demonstrate it because writing C programs is a drag. Python is just calling kill(2) here. If it's really necessary, I can probably provide a C version of the demonstration. -- kill(2) succeeds when no process corresponds to the given PID https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/341239 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
