        <listitem>
          <para>This ensures that the Psmisc binaries will install into
          <filename class="directory">/bin</filename> instead of <filename
          class="directory">/usr/bin</filename>. This is the correct location
          according to the FHS, because some of the Psmisc binaries are used
          by the LFS-Bootscripts package.</para>
        </listitem>
      </varlistentry>

    </variablelist>

    <para>Compile the package:</para>

<screen><userinput>make</userinput></screen>

    <para>This package does not come with a test suite.</para>

    <para>Install the package:</para>

<screen><userinput>make install</userinput></screen>

    <para>There is no reason for the <command>pstree</command> and
    <command>pstree.x11</command> programs to reside in <filename
    class="directory">/bin</filename>. Therefore, move them to <filename
    class="directory">/usr/bin</filename>:</para>

<screen><userinput>mv -v /bin/pstree* /usr/bin</userinput></screen>

    <para>By default, Psmisc's <command>pidof</command> program is not
    installed. This usually is not a problem because it is installed later
    in the Sysvinit package, which provides a better
    <command>pidof</command> program. If Sysvinit will not be used for a
    particular system, complete the installation of Psmisc by creating the
    following symlink:</para>

<screen><userinput>ln -sv killall /bin/pidof</userinput></screen>
