Package: oomd
Version: 0.4.0-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Dear Maintainer,
I am happy, that you are providing an init script for the oomd package.
At the moment the script has two small problems:
1) the oomd process cannot detach into background on its own, thus
`/etc/init.d/oomd start` hangs forever (e.g. during package
installation)
2) oomd cannot create a PID file. This causes a delay when running
`/etc/init.d/oomd stop`.
Issue (1) can be fixed by adding `--background` to the
start-stop-daemon call.
Issue (2) can be fixed by adding `--make-pid`.
Attached you find a patch containing these changes.
Thank you for your time!
Cheers,
Lars
