Hi Pierre! Thanks for testing this. Shishid is the most unstable
part of shishi, and I haven't tested the Debian packaging of it much.
I have found the --background parameter to start-stop-daemon, and
believe it will solve this problem. Could you modify the
/etc/init.d/shishid file and replace --start with --start
--background?
Thanks!
