Package: hylafax-server
Version: 2:4.3.1-7
Severity: important
File: /etc/init.d/hylafax


*faxgetty* does not detach (dissassociate) from the terminal that invoked 
*/etc/init.d/hylafax start*.  This behavior is un-daemon-like and leads to 
the inscrutable situation that */etc/init.d/hylafax start* invoked at a 
*root* prompt will succeed.  However, *gksu /etc/init.d/hylfax start* will 
fail.  It will leave *faxq* and *hfaxd* running, but *faxgetty* will die 
when *gksu* dies.  Perhaps *faxgetty* ought to be invoked with its 
-D option.  Here's a patch against */etc/init.d/hylafax*:
