* Also drop to application user if not going to the background

[niclan]

... otherwise the application runs as root when you asked to to remain in the foreground for debugging.

Second patch is to drop from gid 0 because the app that's no longer root needs the right group to be able to write to some files/pipes/socets (rrdcached socket in our case).

I've patched up your pull request (never use tabs for indentation on a OSS project that uses spaces, wars have been started for less :) and merged it:

https://github.com/mschilli/app-daemon/commit/b7c5a88f089625effc71af546023f8432aaf2947

It only seems to contain the group feature you mentioned, not the other one, so if you want that to be included as well, please submit a new pull request for that.

Thanks for your contribution!

Hi,

I work mostly alone on stuff and this is the emacs default. I've now inserted a line in my emacs setup to prevent the tab cockup from recurring. I have read about the tab vs. spaces thing but it never really came up before. Sorry.

The thing I meant to send in the first changeset is there:

around line 188.

 } elsif ($as_user) {
     id_switch();
 }

I now notice that that should read

 } elsif ($as_user or $as_group) {
     id_switch();
 }

but the if is also kind of redundant because $as_user and $as_group is always set?

What version will this be?
