  795. Added notes how to deal with psmisc's pidof symlink (in case sysvinit
  796. isn't installed) and man page. Also, added --exec-prefix=/ to psmisc's
  797. configure script in order for the programs to be installed in /bin
  798. rather than /usr/bin (bootscripts may use them, so they must be in
  799. /bin).</para></listitem>

  801. Added USRGAMES_DIR=/usr/bin to the make install routine so that
  802. /usr/games isn't created for banner and it is installed in
  803. /usr/bin.</para></listitem>

  807. missing &amp;&amp; to 'done' and chmod the configure script to mode 755
  808. instead of 700 (more of a default mode so people don't _have_ to be
  809. running as the owner of that file).</para></listitem>
