Package: minidlna Version: 1.0.18-4 Severity: normal Tags: patch If minidlna is run as user minidlna it is unable to create the pid-file:
daemonize.c:98: error: Unable to open pidfile for writing /var/run/minidlna.pid: Keine Berechtigung This is because the directory /var/run is owned by root. The attached patch creates a directory /var/run/minidlna with owner minidlna and uses the file /var/run/minidlna/minidlna.pid as pid-file. This also fixes bug # 613853. Regards, Thomas Viehweger
