The --background parameter to start-stop-daemon appear to work, and seem to be the fastest way to solve this problem, so I propose to do it that way. Do you see any problem with this? I've asked the original reported to test it. Hopefully, shishid in 0.0.24 will support a --nofork parameter, and I can change the default to fork into the background. I am sorry for the slow response to this, I have been on vacation.
