Hi,
I noticed some unreliability in tipidee-config. It sometimes fails with
this error:
tipidee-config: fatal: unable to read from preprocessor: No child process
On Alpine edge this seems to be able to reproduce the issue relatively
quickly:
echo > tipidee.conf
while tipidee-config -i tipidee.conf -o tipidee.conf.cdb; do :; done
When running tipidee-config in strace it only happens very rarely so
I attached the strace I got.
A quick look makes it seem that the code tries to wait for a child after
it had already exited.
