Apparently you dont have 'killproc' on your system for some strange
reason (Have you been deleting packings you don't _think_ you need?)

Quick solution -

cd /usr/bin
ln -s /bin/true killproc

This will at least make rpm happy..

Also, perhaps you might wish to try getting and compiling exim from
source instead.
