Public bug reported: Binary package hint: strace
Using strace in various configurations produces varied results; among these are... nothing! Below is a table for the involved. strace -ff -c ls Gives timing output for 'ls' strace -c -o food ls Emits timing output into ./food strace -ff -o food ls Emits timing output into ./food (another bug..) strace -ff -c -o food ls Emits an empty file 'food' Doing this on Ubuntu Edgy with strace -- version 4.5.14. I'm rather certain that file shouldn't be empty. ** Affects: strace (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- 'strace -ff -c -o filename' spits out null output https://launchpad.net/bugs/53974 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
