Hi,
when killing shepherd i.e `pkill -9 shepherd` it left behind
`default-socket-file` and when restarted whithout remove the socket like
---------------------------------------------------------
rm /var/run/user/1000/shepherd/socket
---------------------------------------------------------
it throws a error:
---------------------------------------------------------
3 (primitive-load "/home/gfleury/prod/shepherd/./shepherd")
In shepherd.scm:
56:14 2 (main . _)
49:6 1 (open-server-socket _)
In unknown file:
0 (bind #<input-output: socket 16> #(1 "/run/user/1000?") #)
ERROR: In procedure bind:
In procedure bind: Address already in use
---------------------------------------------------------
something like this patch can fix it.
