The one line change you suggest is something I ready did earlier today.
So the initscript becomes:
Code:
--------------------
#!/bin/sh

# $Id$

# logitechmediaserver initscript for slimserver.pl
# This file should be placed in /etc/init.d.

--------------------
But it doesn't appear that simple as the debian way uses 2 deamons, and
there's nothing to replace /usr/sbin/squeezeboxserver_safe. Hence
/etc/init.d/logitechmedaiserver appears to start, but in fact the
server.log shows:
Code:
--------------------
2013-09-03 22:19:05 Logitech Media Server died. Restarting.
2013-09-03 22:19:10 Logitech Media Server died. Restarting.
2013-09-03 22:19:15 Logitech Media Server died. Restarting.
2013-09-03 22:19:20 Logitech Media Server died. Restarting.
2013-09-03 22:19:25 Logitech Media Server died. Restarting.
2013-09-03 22:19:30 Logitech Media Server died. Restarting.
2013-09-03 22:19:35 Logitech Media Server died. Restarting.
--------------------
Hence I tried to a least test the build trying to start ./slimerver.pl
directly with appropriate options. I gave up for the moment. This old
debian script might be made to work:
https://wiki.debian.org/SlimServerHowto
I haven't given any more time to it yet. Otherwise, I guess I'll just
wait to for a .deb file.
