Bug#181951: libc6: Libc6 doesn't draw "top" screen correctly
Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.1-11
Severity: normal
When using libc6 2.3.1-11, screen of command "top" is drawn incorrectly,
whereas when version 2.2.5-11.2 is used, top functions in the right way.
With 2.2.5-11.2 the first line of top's output is not shown if the number
of processes is so big that the list of them has to be truncated.
So the uppermost part of top's screen looks like:
36 processes: 35 sleeping, 1 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped
CPU states: 4.6% user, 5.2% system, 0.0% nice, 90.2% idle
Whereas the correctly draw screen looks like this:
17:20:23 up 6:42, 4 users, load average: 0.08, 0.20, 0.24
36 processes: 35 sleeping, 1 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped
CPU states: 4.6% user, 5.2% system, 0.0% nice, 90.2% idle
I don't know what part os libc6 is causing the problem, but the problem
appeared when I upgraded from 2.2.5-11.2 to 2.3.1-11.
