10<para>Psmisc installs the
11<filename>/usr/share/man/man1/pidof.1</filename> man page, but Psmisc's
12pidof program isn't installed by default. Generally, this isn't a problem
13because we later install the Sysvinit package, which provides
14a better pidof program.</para>
15
16<para>It's up to you now to decide if you are going to use the Sysvinit
17package, which provides a pidof program, or not. If you are going to, you
18should remove Psmisc's pidof man page by running:</para>
19
20<para><screen><userinput>rm /usr/share/man/man1/pidof.1</userinput></screen></para>
21
22<para>If you're not going to use Sysvinit, you should complete this
23package's installation by creating the <filename>/bin/pidof</filename>
24symlink by running:</para>

26<para><screen><userinput>ln -s killall /bin/pidof</userinput></screen></para>
