Howdy all,
I am pleased to announce the release of version 2.1.1 of the
‘python-daemon’ library.
The current release is always available at
<URL:https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-daemon/>.
Significant changes since the previous version
==============================================
Version 2.1.0
-------------
I omitted sending a release announcement for version 2.1.0.
* Add a DaemonContext option, ‘initgroups’, which specifies whether to
set the daemon process's supplementary groups.
* Set the process groups using ‘os.initgroups’.
Thanks to Malcolm Purvis for contributing an implementation of this
feature.
Version 2.1.1
-------------
This is a bug fix release, addressing this bug:
* Default ‘initgroups’ option to False. Using ‘os.initgroups’ requires
permission to set process GID, so this now needs to be explicitly
requested.
What is the ‘python-daemon’ library?
====================================
‘python-daemon’ is a Python library to implement a well-behaved Unix
daemon process.
