As the sysvinit becomes obsolete, some of the bundled tools
need to find a new home. The procps-ng project seems to be
the most suitable project for adopting the pidof tool.
This commit introduces a redesigned version of pidof
that satisfies the LSB requirements.
In corner cases the behaviour might differ from the former
one as the new version doesn't use any stat(2) calls.
In the same fashion of pgrep, introduce two new options:
--ns <pid>
- nslist <ns,...>
which allows processes to be filtered by namespace.

A PID should be specified with --ns:
$ pgrep --ns 12345
which will only match the processes which belong to to the same 6
namespaces. It is also possible to specify which namespaces to test:
$ pgrep --ns 12345 --nslist mnt,net,ipc
which will match processes that belong to the same mount, network and
IPC namespaces as PID 12345.

If you configure w/out --enable-examples, then `make dist` doesn't
include sysctl.conf. Configure flags should not affect the tarball
produced by `make dist`, so explicitly list the conf in EXTRA_DIST.

Two problems.
1) skill/snice : distribution doesnt mean install
If you don't set your configure flags right, you dont install the
skill/snice man pages which means you will break any subsequent compiles
with the flags enabled. Man pages not to be installed should still be
distributed.
2) The git version into Makefile.am breaks under certain conditions.
The easy break for this is:
touch aclocal.m4
make
We need this script added plus some dist hook magic that got left out.
If stream status is not checked at the end of execution below problem
would not report error, or non-zero exit code. The uptime is just an
example same was true with all commands of the project.
$ uptime >&- ; echo $?
uptime: write error: Bad file descriptor
1
$ uptime >/dev/full ; echo $?
uptime: write error: No space left on device
1

Both skill and snice are are mentioned in manual page to be 'obsolete
and unportable'. This commit discourages distributors to keep these
commands part of default system.

Makes Debian patch makefile_watch_ncurses redundant.
watch was being linked to NCURSES_LIBS when it should of been
WATCH_NCURSES_LIBS which can be ncursesw with 8bit enabled.
The handling of the -c (count) option in free uses the standard string
handling and error utils. The program also checks for negative counts
and errors on these.
Some of the latest changes to Makefile.am files are missing.
This patch restores the LOCALEDIR variable, among others,
and dispenses with the include directives in the ps/ and top/
subdirectories since they're no longer needed.
The library used to be called libprocps but it was renamed to make sure
there was only one. However the formatting of the library SONAME has
changed so there cannot be any confusion.
libprocps makes it clear that its a library from this project and not a
set of functions directly on the filesystem.
This commit fixes also peculiar behavior of
$ slabtop -d 0
which did not make sense. The fix is to disallow anything else but
positive integers, which includes zero as is is not positive (or
negative) number.

The vmstat used ULONG_MAX as definition of infinite updates. On a
computer with mighty uptime one will find that after 136 years
(assuming 1 second update interval) the vmstat exits, which is in
conflict with a promise of infinite.

The utility library is for functions which are shared in commands,
but that does not belong to libproc-ng. The first function is a
wrapper for strtol that performs error checking, and exists if such
happen.

Previously the version of libproc always tracked the version of procps.
This doesn't work when other non-procps programs link to the library as
they are always playing catch up.
This change makes the library version independent of the procps version.
It will only be incremented when needed.
After `make install' I expect to see some files in
<prefix>/share/doc/procps-ng directory, this commit adds few most
obvious ones to there.

The kill from procps-ng is not always wanted. For example RedHat
seems to prefer kill from util-linux package.

The library file version string is taken from configure.ac AC_INIT.

Move files that are not compiled to <build-root>/contrib
directory. The files consist two unmaintained commands,
alternative ps & w, and and broken utmp examination / printing
utility. The dummy.c became unnecessary at the point when
autotools where re-introduced.

This will revert change at Oct 2002 when autotools support was
removed.
Unlike before the package developers are expected to use
./autogen.sh to generate ./configure script, and run make after
that. The build system is also able to create, with make dist, a
tar ball release which compiles correctly, and has files which
seemed to be important to have.
The patch removes few unnecessary files, but no everything. Files
procps.lsm and procps.spec in git repository are useless as is,
but I left them lying around for someone who can make more
justified call about removal of them.
Last, but not least package version number is set 3.3.0 to
distinct this procps from the sourceforge's upstream procps.
Please notice that libproc relese is kept as 3.2.8.
