Putting stuff like /var/run into the > daemon seems like a bad idea. By that logic, we should remove the daemonize code entirely, since one can't otherwise get the PID post-daemonize. (I'll admit that I'm using it in a project that has no init scripts, so I'd carry this change regardless.) Finally, the "/var/run/usbipd.pid" is just a default; the user is welcome to specify whatever path their distribution or layout requires. (Assuming I coded the getopt bits correctly!) As always, feel free to drop. I just wanted to follow up on my previous patches with a more final version, in case anyone else needs or wants these features.
