Looking at <URL:https://pypi.python.org/pypi/unittest2> it's not clear
to me what version of ‘unittest2’ is needed. (There doesn't seem to be
a changelog in the ‘unittest2’ source distribution, sadly.)

What is special about version 0.8.0, and can some earlier version
suffice? What is missing in earlier versions that affects
‘python-daemon’'s unit tests?

Great, thank you for packaging this for wider use!
