Just executing lsof in pbuilder/cowbuilder chroot environment causes flood of warnings. Just -l option avoids this noise.
In chroot environment, /etc/passwd is a limited one but /proc has lot of processes that are related to users in the parent environment.
-l option means "inhibits the conversion of user ID numbers to login names."
