Hey Alarig,

I suggest to read the man-page of start-stop-daemon to get an detailed idea of 
how it works.

You use '--name paste-py' which tells start-stop-daemon to look for a process 
named 'paste-py' to see if it is still running, when you request the status. 
As your shell-script runs daemonize.py as the last step and then quits itself, 
there is no process with the name 'paste-py' and therefore the reported status 
is 'crashed'.
Use '--pidfile /opt/paste-py/paste.pid' instead. With this, the status is 
determined by reading the pid from the file and then looking if this pid is 
still running.

If the cxx useflag is active, gcc will have support to compile c++

Yeah, 'View Source' is the other menu-entry I miss since some versions.

you need to press ctrl+alt+D now to activate it. No menu entry anymore, see:

Adding you normal user to the wheel group should help. ;)
