console-tools (or part of that suite of stuff, anyway) just hung on me
while doing an upgrade. Here's the relevant part of pstree:
|
|-xterm---zsh---aptitude---dpkg---console-tools.p---invoke-rc.d---console-screen.---unicode_start---vt-is-UTF8
Here are ps lines for those processes:
root 3830 0.0 0.3 2472 1208 pts/3 SN 12:37 0:00 /bin/sh /var/lib/dpkg/info/console-tools.postinst configure 1:0.2.3dbs-26
root 3837 0.0 0.3 2532 1324 pts/3 SN 12:37 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d console-screen.sh start
root 3841 0.0 0.3 2532 1320 pts/3 SN 12:37 0:00 /bin/sh /etc/init.d/console-screen.sh start
root 3854 0.0 0.3 2460 1184 pts/3 SN 12:37 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/bin/unicode_start
root 3856 0.0 0.1 1624 692 pts/3 SN 12:37 0:00 /usr/bin/vt-is-UTF8 --quiet
It might be relevant that I'm running the upgrade remotely on an
ssh-tunneled xterm.
