+psmisc, version 19
+==================
+
+This package contains four little utilities that use the proc FS:
+
+  fuser     identifies processes using files or sockets (similar to Sun's
+	    or SGI's fuser)
+  killall   kills processes by name, e.g. killall -HUP named
+  pidof	    like killall, buts lists PIDs instead of killing processes
+  pstree    shows the currently running processes as a tree
+
+They should work with most recent kernels. Man pages are included.
