Bug#372259: user-mode-linux: the uml_switch control file is not been searched as in uml-utilities package

If so, if you feel it should be fixed, please let me know it, because I would like to close the bug, please.

The uml-utilities daemon is designed to create, once installed, a default ctl file in the following location: /var/run/uml-utilities/uml_switch.ctl then when started it waits for $UML_SWITCH_CTL which is by default set to the previous parameter. If you go in to the uml-utilities source code the usage it expects is descripted in the following way (uml_switch.c): fprintf(stderr, \tand run the UMLs with 'eth0=daemon,,unix,control,data'\n); and also, if not specified, it expects to find it in here (uml_switch.c): static char *ctl_socket = /tmp/uml.ctl; while it's grave (the uml networking is quite vital), there is a simple workaround: specify the exact control file location with the daemon arg. In this way you specify the data it expects! Doesn't it?
