Package: radicale
Version: 3.0.6-3
Severity: important

The init script `/etc/init.d/radicale` which is included with the 3.0.6-3
package failed to start Radicale for me.

Radicale's "--daemon" option was apparently removed with 3.0.6-3.
Attempting to use the "--daemon" option resulted in an error.
`start-stop-daemon`'s "-b" option was able to work around this.


Appears the documentation for `start-stop-daemon` is misleading or wrong,
and the "--exec" option is needed if "--startas" is given a pathname.

Might be this is an issue for me, but not others since the "radicale"
user's shell had been set to `/bin/false`.  As this is strongly
recommended security hardening, the radicale package should work with a
system setup this way.
