So I decided to kill one process at a time. Killing the first one solved my problem.
Why didn't killall rpm kill these processes?
Hello, Because the process is not 'rpm', rather it's kdesu and bash.
If "kill all processes containing 'rpm' somewhere in their pathname" is what you mean use "pkill" like in pkill rpm But that is hardly very wise without preceding it with ps aux | grep rpm before you kill anything useful.
