Fixing the initscript mostly #73

Closed eyedeekay closed 5 years ago

eyedeekay commented 5 years ago

start-stop-daemon doesn't create a pid file for the application unless it's specifically instructed to with --make-pidfile and it won't fork a process into the background unless it's instructed to with --background, so the initscript doesn't know which process to stop, and installing it on systems that use initscripts cases apt to sit there forever, just running XD. I added the required options to the initscript to fix the issue. I also changed postinst to to generate the configuration files as the debian-xd user, so the directory doesn't need to be chown'ed in the postinstall script, which lintian complains about.

sudo is not installed everywhere, so that is bad solution.

try using su instead of sudo
