Synopsis: sysutils/p5-MogileFS-Server: issues with daemons startup

State-Changed-From-To: feedback->open
State-Changed-By: trociny
State-Changed-When: Mon Jan 14 16:29:27 UTC 2013
State-Changed-Why: 
Although the patch is just a workaround and does not fixes the
real problem, it makes mogstored work and does not look like
introduce any other bug or side effect.

IMHO it is not the right thing to work around the bug in upstream
but it is legal to do in the port. I think this is exactly what
port pathes are for -- to workaround the problem until it is not
fixed upstream.

Taking into consideration that there is no any solution for
Danga::Socket provided so far (even as a patch) and there is an
issue with the repository, it may take some time while the
problem is fixed upstream and it would be very good to workaround
it in our port meantime.

If you don't like very much the idea to patch p5-MogileFS-Server
we can use another workaround, mentioned in the initial message:
modify mogstored rc.d script to start mogstored in foreground and
use daemon(8) to daemonize it. If you like this solution more I
can provide a patch.
