SIGR: Yet Another Simple SIGnal manageR

Signal plays an important role in communication with POSIX system.

For example, what if our code been killed, interrupted, hung on? Generally, the operation system (I am talking about BSD, Unix-like, POSIX system, same in the follow but will omitted), will not really "KILL" it, it will just send a kill signal with id to this process, the this process will process this signal later.

Here is a table to describe the id to default action.

Multilib version problems found in CentOS

Recently, when I ran "yum update" for some update, which will get an error as follow:

--> Processing Dependency: libstdc++.so.6 for package: pcre-8.32-17.el7.i686
---> Package zlib.i686 0:1.2.7-17.el7 will be installed
--> Running transaction check
---> Package libcap-ng.i686 0:0.7.5-4.el7 will be installed
---> Package libstdc++.i686 0:4.8.5-16.el7 will be installed
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error:  Multilib version problems found. This often means that the root
       cause is something else and multilib version checking is just
       pointing out that there is a problem. Eg.:

         1. You have an upgrade for libstdc++ which is missing some
            dependency that another package requires. Yum is trying to
            solve this by installing an older version of libstdc++ of the
            different architecture. If you exclude the bad architecture
            yum will tell you what the root cause is (which package
            requires what). You can try redoing the upgrade with
            --exclude libstdc++.otherarch ... this should give you an error
            message showing the root cause of the problem.

         2. You have multiple architectures of libstdc++ installed, but
            yum can only see an upgrade for one of those architectures.
            If you don't want/need both architectures anymore then you
            can remove the one with the missing update and everything
            will work.

         3. You have duplicate versions of libstdc++ installed already.
            You can use "yum check" to get yum show these errors.

       ...you can also use --setopt=protected_multilib=false to remove
       this checking, however this is almost never the correct thing to
       do as something else is very likely to go wrong (often causing
       much more problems).
