<para>psmisc installs the
<filename>/usr/share/man/man1/pidof.1</filename> man page, but psmisc's
pidof program isn't installed by default. Generally that isn't a problem
because we install the sysvinit package later on which provides us with
a better pidof program.</para>
<para>It's up to you now to decide if you are going to use the sysvinit
package which provides a pidof program, or not. If you are going to, you
should remove psmisc's pidof man page by running:</para>
<para><screen><userinput>rm /usr/share/man/man1/pidof.1</userinput></screen></para>
<para>If you're not going to use sysvinit, you should complete this
package's installation by creating the <filename>/bin/pidof</filename>
symlink by running:</para>
<para><screen><userinput>cd /bin</userinput>
<userinput>ln -s killall pidof</userinput></screen></para>
