            Bug ID: 16307
           Summary: ubuntu 12.04 /bin/kill no likey new kill -SIG --
                    -[exp_pid]
           Product: systemtap
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: testsuite
          Assignee: systemtap at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: fche at redhat dot com

/bin/kill on ubuntu comes from procps version 3.2.8, and does not
seem to appreciate the luxurious dual-hyphenation that our testsuite
now provides.

--- Comment #1 from Mark Wielaard <mjw at redhat dot com> ---
Which is funny, since this was originally introduced because ubuntu was using a
buggy procps-ng 3.3.3, causing the original -- addition as far as I can see:

commit 60d57102e6c06a326226acb7e6ab97c601ca614e
Author: Naresh Kamboju <naresh.kamboju@linaro.org>
Date:   Wed Oct 16 11:56:16 2013 -0400

    /bin/kill -INT -[exp_pid] not supported on Ubuntu which is having procps-ng
    3.3.3

     /bin/kill -INT -22504
     /bin/kill: invalid option -- '2'

    Due to this reason test scripts modified to
     /bin/kill -INT -- -[exp_pid]

With commits 0b872dd and 5a2e1a2, a new kill proc was added which checks for
those buggy procps-ng kill versions (v3.3.2 and v3.3.3) and adds a double dash
as necessary. I ran the testsuite with various versions of kill with no issues.
