It is, you're right. We have addressed this in a previous version, python-daemon 1.6. Unfortunately the ‘lockfile’ library started becoming incompatible around that time, which brings its own problems, so version 1.6 hasn't seen a proper release. > Here's my patch suggestion: Thank you! > It's a pitty that there's no official source repository The project <URL:https://alioth.debian.org/projects/python-daemon/> has an official VCS and discussion forums. > which makes patch submitting/bug tracking a little bit harder. There is a development discussion forum (Cc-ed on this message) and a bug-specific forum. Hope that helps, and thank you for the bug report. I hope ‘python-daemon’ continues to be useful for your work. -- \ “The truth is the most valuable thing we have.
