Package: gearman-job-server
Version: 0.8-2
Severity: important

There are several issues with the init script of gearman-job-server:

Bugs
----

- gearmand doesn't start but complains: "Must specify '-u root' if you
  want to run as root"

- gearmand should run as a dedicated user "gearmand", compare:
  /usr/share/doc/base-passwd/users-and-groups.txt.gz , section about the
  user "daemon"

Missing Features
----------------

- gearmand should read /etc/default/gearman-job-server for additional
  parameters, see https://bugs.launchpad.net/pkg-gearman/+bug/403372

- gearmand should log to /var/log/gearman-job-server

Thanks for your work packaging gearman!
(And please keep the repository at launchpad up to date so that I can
branch from it :-)
