Or actually more to the point: sending SIGINT or SIGTERM is fine, rpm

Right. How about I just don't send SIGKILL at all for yum?
That would be best, yes.
We then probably have a situation where cancel (sometimes?) doesn't seem
to work (within a reasonable time) but non-working rpm is far worse than
non-working PK cancel. And rpm's responsiveness to SIGINT can certainly be
improved a good deal, I'm just looking at how to best deal it and some
other signal related issues which currently are pretty broken.
