687	"Prune the number of ""kill"" binaries installed"	greg@…	lfs-book@…	"""kill"" is a shell builtin so it doesn't matter most of the time. But some
scripts will call /bin/kill so we need to have one there at least.

Three packages currently install ""kill""

coreutils -> /usr/bin
procps -> /bin
util-linux -> /bin

I propose that we use the one from procps. The one from util-linux can be
inhibited from installing by building it like so:

make HAVE_KILL=yes HAVE_SLN=yes

The one from coreutils can be removed by:

rm /usr/bin/kill

(similar to how we deal with /bin/groups from shadow).

Deal with this after 5.0 release."	defect	closed	highest		Book	CVS	normal	duplicate
