The following line of default service start script for gitlab ci causes problem: execute "cat $RUNNERS_PID | xargs kill -USR2"

The problem is that on some platforms (on debian in my case) kill does not have -U flag, thus script causes:

#service gitlab_ci_runner stop
Number of registered runners in PID file=10
Number of running runners=0
WARNING: Numbers of registered runners don't match number of running runners. Will try to stop them all
Registered runners=10
Running runners=0
Trying to stop registered runners...OK
Trying to kill ghost runners...kill: invalid argument U

Usage:
 kill [options] <pid> [...]

Options:
 <pid> [...]            send signal to every <pid> listed
 -<signal>, -s, --signal <signal>
                        specify the <signal> to be sent
 -l, --list=[<signal>]  list all signal names, or convert one to a name
 -L, --table            list all signal names in a nice table

 -h, --help     display this help and exit
 -V, --version  output version information and exit
