sorry, what do you mean by generic ?

no, the name is not hard coded by the upstream. I start "daemon" with start-stop-daemon with this command

        start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --chuid tango:tango --background \
            --make-pidfile --pidfile $PIDFILE --exec $DAEMON -- $DAEMON_ARGS \
            || return 2

So it is hardcoded in the package not by the mainstream author.

Cheers
