Package: hddtemp
Version: 0.3-beta15-12
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
Hi,
it would be nice to be able to run the hddtemp daemon under a process
supervisor such as runit, daemontools or daemon.
I added a -F command line switch that causes hddtemp to stay in the
foreground even in daemon mode to facilitate this.
Please apply my attached patch.
Thanks
Andras
