What were you trying to do?
Use truss
What's wrong:
Nothing seems to happen. For instance,
truss /bin/ls
Just hangs; after waiting 30 seconds, I gave up.
What should have happened:
Tracing output from /bin/ls should have been produced, as should
the regular output of /bin/ls
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
truss(4)
I attempted (foolishly) running truss /bin/ls under gdb to
no avail :-)
A ps while truss is running yields two processes, implying (?)
it succeeded in forking but not execing:
