Created attachment 297999 [details] buildslave.initd The buildslave init script sets a custom pidfile but does not let start-stop-daemon know about it. This makes start-stop-daemon look for a pidfile that does not exist and rc-status will report "crashed". Attached init script fixes the issue. I "only" added line 34, --pidfile to start-stop-daemon.
Thanks! Committed to the tree without revbump, I'm going to add 0.8.7 and stabilize 0.8.6_p1 shortly anyway.
