No problem :-) I think that anyway the installation was completed
successfully using "aptitude reinstall dante-server".

Thank you very much!

I add below some other comments that may be useful.

Do you think it might be a good idea to enable the service at the boot
of the operating system? I think it is currently necessary to do
"systemctl enable danted" for this happen.

Do you think it might be a good idea to use something like:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
# Include Dante defaults if available
if [ -f /etc/default/dante ]; then
    . /etc/default/dante
fi
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

I think it might be useful if someone wants to start the service with
some additional parameter (eg "-d" for debug mode) without having to
manually modify the startup script.


Thanks for your time.

Kind regards,
