Christoph Biedl 257fe922d2 getpid.sh: Fix testcase error for Debian using sbuild 
When

 * building the ngircd Debian package (on Linux at least) and
 * using the sbuild build system,

the command "ps -af" does not include the commands running inside the
sbuild system. Therefore, start-server.sh will report a fail as getpid.sh
cannot not  find the ./T-ngircd1 just started although it's actually
running. This results in a funny build log ...

         starting server 1 ... failure!
   FAIL: start-server1
         running connect-test ... ok.
   PASS: connect-test

The self-test of getpid.sh however will likely succeed as it's happy if
it sees any process with "sh" somewhere in the name. Things go downhill
from there.

The confusing things are:

  * The alternative cowbuilder/pbuilder does not have this problem.
  * The alternative usage "ps ax" does fine.

So, as a quick hack, the patch attached adds another switch to getpid.sh.

                           http://ngircd.barton.de/

               ngIRCd is free software and published under the
                   terms of the GNU General Public License.

                                -- README --


I. Introduction
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

ngIRCd is an Open Source server for the Internet Relay Chat (IRC), which
is developed and published under the terms of the GNU General Public
Licence, see the file COPYING for details. ngIRCd means "next generation
IRC daemon" (which is a little bit exaggerated, "lightweight Internet Relay
Chat server" would be better), it's written from scratch and not deduced
from the "grandfather of IRC daemons", the daemon of the IRCNet.

Please see the INSTALL document for installation and upgrade information!


II. Status
~~~~~~~~~~~

It is not the goal of ngIRCd to implement all the nasty behaviours of the
original ircd, but to implement most of the useful commands and semantics
specified by the RFCs.

In the meantime ngIRCd should be quite feature complete and stable to be
used in real IRC networks.

Implemented IRC-commands are:

ADMIN, AWAY, CHANINFO, CONNECT, DIE, DISCONNECT, ERROR, GLINE, HELP, INFO,
INVITE, ISON, JOIN, KICK, KILL, KLINE, LINKS, LIST, LUSERS, MODE, MOTD,
NAMES, NICK, NJOIN, NOTICE, OPER, PART, PASS, PING, PONG, PRIVMSG, QUIT,
REHASH, RESTART, SERVER, SERVICE, SERVLIST, SQUERY, SQUIT, STATS, SUMMON,
TIME, TOPIC, TRACE, USER, USERHOST, USERS, VERSION, WALLOPS, WEBIRC, WHO,
WHOIS, WHOWAS.

III. Features (or: why use ngIRCd?)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

- well arranged (lean) configuration file
- simple to build/install, configure and maintain
- supports IPv6 and SSL
- no problems with servers that have dynamic IP addresses
- freely available, modern, portable and tidy C-source
- wide field of supported platforms, including AIX, A/UX, FreeBSD, HP-UX,
  IRIX, Linux, Mac OS X, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris, and Windows with Cygwin.
- ngIRCd is being actively developed since 2001.


IV. Documentation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

More documentation can be found in the "doc/" directory and the homepage of

The homepage of the ngIRCd is: <http://ngircd.barton.de/>; you will find
the newest information about the ngIRCd and the most recent ("stable")
releases there.

If you are interested in the latest development versions (which are not
always stable), then please read the section about "GIT" on the homepage and
the file "doc/GIT.txt" which describes the use of GIT, the version control
system used by ngIRCd (homepage: http://git-scm.com/).
