Package: irda-utils Version: 0.9.16-9 Severity: normal Hi,
The irattach program always forks to background. There should be a command line option which makes the fork_now() call in irattach.c conditional. I consider this a normal bug instead of a wishlist bug, because an unconditional fork is a bad idea since it prevents irattach to be used with service supervisors like daemontools or runit. An option to log to stdout instead of syslog would also be nice in conjunction with this.
