Subject: [devuan-dev] bug#965: procps: [watch] --no-title leaves 2 blank lines at the bottom
Package: procps
Version: 2:4.0.6-2
Severity: normal

Running "watch seq 1 100" shows on a 80x24 terminal the numbers 1
through 22 with 2 header lines. If I run "watch --no-title seq 1 100",
the 2 header lines are removed but the bottom 2 lines are blank, showing
only the numbers 1 through 22.

Though this package is forked by Devuan, I verified that the bug does
occur in the watch binary from Debian's procps 2:4.0.6-2, and watch
neither links to libsystemd0 nor libproc2-1.

Thanks,

    Ingo
