I made a daemon script to start timidity++'s ALSA daemon. I wanted to send it to the maintainer of the timidity++ package, but on the package's -Qi info, it just says "Arch Linux" as the packager. I went to www.archlinux.org and searched for the package and I got the name of the person who packaged it, but it didn't have an e-mail. So if you are the maintainer of timidity++ and see this, can you drop me a message saying whether you think this is a good or bad idea please? Now for the script (I just modified the cups daemon script):
#!/bin/bash
. /etc/rc.conf
. /etc/rc.d/functions
PID=`pidof -o %PPID /usr/bin/timidity`
case "$1" in
start)
stat_busy "Starting Timidity++ ALSA Daemon"
[ -z "$PID" ] && /usr/bin/timidity -iAD > /dev/null
if [ $? -gt 0 ]; then
stat_fail
else
echo $PID > /var/run/timidity.pid
add_daemon timidity
stat_done
fi
;;
stop)
stat_busy "Stopping Timidity++ ALSA Daemon"
[ ! -z "$PID" ] && kill $PID &> /dev/null
if [ $? -gt 0 ]; then
stat_fail
else
rm /var/run/timidity.pid
rm_daemon timidity
stat_done
fi
;;
restart)
$0 stop
sleep 1
$0 start
;;
*)
echo "usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}"
esac
exit 0

You can get hold of Damir at
damir at archlinux dot org
according to the timidity PKGBUILD. On the mailing list, he uses
damir dot perisa at solnet dot ch
OK for ya?

Next time, you can just use the bug tracker: it will be assigned to the right dev.

I don't much care for flyspray. As long as Arch uses it I will find alternative methods. I also think it is silly that it is used for new features and such because I hardly find the lack of a feature as a bug. This is just personal preference here, and you probably never will see another post asking for a dev's e-mail because tomk reminded me about ABS's PKGBUILDs.
I don't care to argue on the subject either.

Fair enough.
