The location of the daemon doesn't matter, as long as your systemd unit file or your init script (I'm not sure which is used in your version of Debian, as they've been making a transition to systemd) refers to the executable program you want to start during the boot process. For example, on a systemd machine I have the following line in /lib/systemd/system/brltty.service: ExecStart=/usr/bin/brltty --pid-file=/run/brltty.pid I'm not sure how you would change this, but I think you have to copy it into /etc/systemd/system and then modify the above line, e.g., to refer to /usr/local/bin/brltty or whatever you need. If you're still running the old SystemV init scripts, then the change that needs to be made is in /etc/init.d/brltty, which is a shell script. Again, you would just change the path to the executable file. _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
