This is a weird one. I have this software called "st" installed on this server. During the test suite, drush eventually will run this software, short for "simple terminal" , part of the suckless-tools package.

This is during the /home/anarcat/src/drush/drush.php site-install testing step. Here is the process tree:

10823 pts/5    S      0:00      \_ /usr/bin/php /usr/bin/phpunit .
11636 pts/5    S      0:00          \_ sh -c /home/anarcat/src/drush/drush.php core-cli --include=/home/anarcat/src/drush/tests --unit-extra='st;exit' --nocolor
11637 pts/5    S      0:00              \_ php /home/anarcat/src/drush/drush.php core-cli --include=/home/anarcat/src/drush/tests --unit-extra=st;exit --nocolor
12239 pts/5    S      0:00                  \_ sh -c bash --rcfile /tmp/php2ZfXFW > `tty`
12241 pts/5    S+     0:00                      \_ bash --rcfile /tmp/php2ZfXFW
12242 pts/5    S+     0:00                          \_ st
12243 pts/9    Ss+    0:00                              \_ /bin/bash -i

... weird. If we mean to test core-cli, couldn't we just call "status" instead of 'st'?

Actually, this probably happens during:

Executing: /home/anarcat/src/drush/drush.php core-cli --include=/home/anarcat/src/drush/tests --unit-extra='st;exit' --nocolor

it's just that it's the site-install step that's being displayed on the screen when the terminal pops up.

I confirm that removing the suckless-tools package is a valid workaround.

ok, so what should we do in drush, if anything?

Do not call "st", but "status".
