From 9ef0e143ee5a68620f2bb98e68e6c3ee037620b3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Antonio Terceiro Date: Sat, 5 Sep 2026 13:46:50 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] deb-systemd-invoke: don't assume `kill` is available /usr/bin/kill is provided by procps, which is not a dependency, and might not be installed. For example, recent Debian CI containers do not include `procps`, and this revealed an implicit dependency in procps by init-system-helpers. Given Perl has a kill() function, we can just use that instead of shelling out to /usr/bin/kill. --- script/deb-systemd-invoke | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/script/deb-systemd-invoke b/script/deb-systemd-invoke index c94d47a..adfac93 100755 --- a/script/deb-systemd-invoke +++ b/script/deb-systemd-invoke @@ -371,7 +371,7 @@ sub reload_reexec_signal { } if ($is_system) { - system('kill', '-s', $signal, '1'); + kill($signal, 1); } else { system('systemctl', '--quiet', 'kill', '--kill-whom=main', '--signal', $signal, 'user@*.service'); } -- 2.53.0
