Kill doesn't work for jobs. Why?

Question

linux

The situation is shown in the screenshot. jobs | kill -s SIGTERM %1 didn't help.

Answer 1

sudo is a utility that elevates privileges to root because of the setuid attribute set on it.
s - means the user calling the utility gets the rights of the owner of this file, in the case of sudo - root
Suspended tasks for the current user will not be found in an environment with elevated privileges from sudo.

[email protected]:~$ id
uid=1000(gin) gid=1000(gin) группы=1000(gin)
[email protected]:~$ sudo id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) группы=0(root)

Variable %1 - stores the id of the minimized process of the current user, not root, an attempt to run kill under sudo will search for minimized tasks from root.
