It has two very useful applications: 1) When start-stop-daemon is not available to adjust the user to launch as (such as running in an upstart script) 2) When operating on a system with consolekit that you don't want to have the mythbackend process launched via su. Consolekit believes this scenario to be an interactive user actually." patch closed minor 0.23 MythTV - General head medium fixed 0
