Should I leave behind (for a while) a minimal Makefile with s/t like BROKEN= obsoleted by pkill(1), in base system Or is it better just to get rid of it altogether? I don't think pkill is really equivalent. Especially it lacks the interactive mode. Couldn't zap be left in? Isn't it really rather low maintenance? Kind regards, Hannah.
