Hi folks,
I'm starting to package my second .deb for my work, the software is the
Zabbix monitoring server and agent, and I'm following the NM guide to
build it. I have a question about a statement on one of the first pages,
it says:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
If the package is new, and you decide you'd like to see it in Debian,
proceed as follows:
[...]
* program should not be a daemon, or something that goes in */sbin
directories, or open a port as root.
[...]
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Why it shouldn't be a daemon? it's harder to get it into Debian because
of that? this particular daemon (http://zabbix.com) uses a
non-privileged port (10050 or something...).
Best regards,
