Public bug reported:
Newer versions of killall (Ubuntu 18.04+) display usage when the signal
is passed like:
killall -INT <name>
and instead require it to be passed as:
killall -int <name>
In previous versions from Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04, this doesn't happen.
Is this a bug or a feature change? If so perhaps it should be noted in
the usage information? The man page suggests capitals with "-SIGNAL".
but that doesn't work any more.
