Hey again,

Bug 13428 (& 13512 ?) addresses the fact that there are multiple 
versions of kill.  Several have pointed to the one in procps, including 
util-linux-ng which comes from kernel.org.  I looked at the procps spell 
and we prevent it's kill from installing.  My choices would be to use 
the one in procps by deleting the SKIP line for kill.
