Summary0000911: amuled should write a pid file on Unix-like systems
Descriptionwell, all is in the title. amuled should be able to write a pid file to say /var/run/amuled.pid to ease the work for init scripts on Unix-like systems.

This a something like a 5 line patch, but I couldn't find the proper file to include the modification.

Should really amuled do that ?
On Debian-like system (and maybe others) there is tool called "start-stop-daemon" used in init script which is able to create pid file on demand.

Yeah, it should be up to the caller to make such files.

start-stop-daemon creates a pid file before the daemon forks, so the pid file is wrong and that's why the daemon should take care of this itself.

The daemon shouldn't fork when started by start-stop-daemon
