Please fix fso-gpsd's init script

[Sascha]

fso-gpsd listens on all available interfaces by default (like gpsd).

Since fso-gpsd is installed by default in current images, I suggest to add "-S localhost:gpsd" to the init script:

fso-gpsd -S localhost:gpsd

This requires version 0.8.

Another issue: fso-gpsd forks itself to the background, so start-stop-daemon's --make-pidfile doesn't work. Instead fso-gpsd can write the pid file:

fso-gpsd -S localhost:gpsd -P /var/run/fso-gpsd.pid

Thanks for letting us know.

I've not tried it yet, but I don't think that your usage of start-stop-daemon will work.

According to the start-top-daemon manual page sth. like this should work (untested):

start-stop-daemon --start --pidfile /var/run/fso-gpsd.pid -exec /usr/sbin/fso-gpsd -- -S localhost:gpsd -P /var/run/fso-gpsd.pid

[stefan]

The hopefully final string should look like this (exec needs two dashes as long option) start-stop-daemon --start --pidfile /var/run/${NAME}.pid --exec /usr/sbin/fso-gpsd -- -S localhost:gpsd -P /var/run/${NAME}.pid

commited, sorry for the delay.
