maintainer-script-calls-start-stop-daemon
The maintainer script seems to call start-stop-daemon
directly. Long-running daemons should be started and stopped via init
scripts using invoke-rc.d
rather than directly in maintainer
scripts.
For more information please consult:
- Running init scripts (Section 9.3.3.2) in the Debian Policy Manual
