- Subject: updated procps package
I've updated the procps package. This includes a one-line fix that takes
into account the fact that the major device number of ttys on Cygwin is 5,
as opposed to 4 on Linux. Along with a patch currently in the pipeline for
the Cygwin /proc stuff, this should mean that ps reports the correct tty for
processes. The /proc patch will also correct the problem with user ids by
setting real uid = saved uid = effective uid (there's other way round this I
can see).
