* rpm -e pcp<blah> stops pcp
* kill by name means removing pcp in a chroot stops global pcp
..so make clean in mangrove would stop pcp on the build machine
there was lots of discussion on this, and i think this was pretty much the
only sensible-looking solution. I originally had a fallback to killall,
which is what you seem to be proposing.. the problem with this being,
as ivan pointed out, it doesnt solve the problem! ie the chroot stop
will still kill the global pcp
(ps im flat out on LRZ stuff right now)
