Bug#737491: eterm: takes 100% CPU time

[Charles GORAND <charles.gorand.dev@gmail.com>]

Package: eterm
Version: 0.9.6-1
Followup-For: Bug #737491

Dear Maintainer,

The issue is the following :
in command.c : get_tty(void) :
[...]
 /*
     * Close all file descriptors.  If only stdin/out/err are closed,
     * child processes remain alive upon deletion of the window.
     */
    {
        unsigned short i;
        unsigned long max_fds;

[...]
max_fds = sysconf(_SC_OPEN_MAX);
[...]
        for (i = 0; i < max_fds; i++) {
            if (i != fd)
                close(i);
        }

On my system, max_fds is 65536 =>for loop indefinitly.

I solve the issue by changing i type to unsigned long

Have a nice day.

CG.
