Subject: [devuan-dev] bug#699: smokeping: Init script fails to stop smokeping
Package: smokeping
Version: 2.7.3-3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I wanted to restart my smokeping daemon after a change of my config files.
I wanted to run the command /etc/init.d/smokeping stop
But the smokeping process did not terminate.
I wanted the smokeping process to terminate.

I have supplied a patch.

If you change the line 131 in /etc/init.d/smokeping from:
    start-stop-daemon --oknodo --stop --retry 3 --quiet --pidfile
$PIDFILE --exec $DAEMON --signal 15
to
    start-stop-daemon --oknodo --stop --retry 3 --quiet --pidfile
$PIDFILE --user $DAEMON_USER --signal 15


The command /etc/init.d/smokeping stop , works. e.g. The smokeping
daemon is killed.
