Subject: ${SOURCE} uses pidof but does not depend on procps
[..]
Alternatively, you could remove all runtime uses of `pidof`.
That might be too strong a wording, as at least initramfs usecases have
TTBOMK no other option?
Maybe "try to remove"?
For most packages just adding `procps` will be more than enough.
More constrained programs could exploit other Essential utilities like
grep or find. For instance (hat tip to Simon McVittie):
```
find /proc -maxdepth 2 -path '/proc/[0-9]*/exe' \
-xtype f -lname /usr/bin/$daemon -print -quit`
```
