Package: approx Version: 1.09 Severity: normal I just tried out approx, and it has the common error (for new daemons) of failing to daemonize correctly. A frequent symptom of this is sshing into a machine, starting the daemon, and logging out, then having the logout hang. This happens because ssh won't exit until all channels are closed, and the daemon is still holding stdin/out/err open.
See http://www.clapper.org/software/daemonize/daemonize.1.html, or Stevens' UNP, or similar references.
