Putting the daemon PID file in the /tmp directory might not be the best solution #29

when tmp is cleaned stopping the daemon is impossible

when is /tmp cleaned eccept on shutdown? if not pidfile: sys.exec("kill -9 ps -ef | grep rlogd") or something like that wold help in the unlikely case

do not daemonize at all in the program but let systemd do that for us. systemd keeps track of running instances and puts output in a journal. works great in HomA.
