Package: stud
Version: 0.3-5
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

This bug report follows a previously reported bug on Ubuntu :
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1123950

Utilization of invoke-rc.d stud restart is failing to restart
the stud daemon correctly.

This is caused by the use of --pidfile that does not wait for the
children to terminate. Removing --pidfile and -m fixes the problem

start-stop-daemon now uses --user to identify the appropriate process
to kill, otherwise the 'stud' init script will be killed as well.

This works as long as the user running is not 'root', which is highly
discouraged in the README.md file anyway.
