Package: gconf2
Version: 2.6.4-2
Severity: normal
File: gconfd-2
You should read daemon(1) for tips on what is expected of deamons. The most
important of these is to background and start a new process session.
and open std* to something other then a TTY(/dev/null) in this case stderr
should be opend to "~/.xsession-errors".
Also change directory to the root directory so as not to hamper umounts.
Clear the umask to enable explicit file creation modes. Close all open file
descriptors.
