From 7b6d4f50c97b4f375687e8216313b10598b44b49 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Aitor Esteve Alvarado Date: Thu, 7 Mar 2019 10:14:48 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] start-stop-daemon: change priority before dropping privileges Currently start-stop-daemon fails when using both the -c option (set uid) and -N option (set niceness/priority) as it first drops privileges and then tries to increase the priority. This patch changes the order of execution.
