Yannick, about the bug we were trying to solve this morning, I fixed it inside BDB. It was a problem regarding key contextualization (userDomain) when running under the daemon (another user). I just didn't understand how it was working for you.
I also changed the way the daemon backend identifies itself. A 'kdb info' now shows 'daemon+berkeleydb' instead of 'daemon+ddefault'.
Also, to make the daemon really work with full permissions, I had to put a setuid(0) call inside main(). And I changed the RPM spec so it now installs kdbd as a +s program.
I was thinking about the next steps for the daemon:
- The libelektra-daemon.so should try to connect to a daemon. If it can't find one, it should be started with exec() or system(). Thats why kdbd is +s.
- An eventual newly started daemon should open the listening socket. If it already finds the file there (so it can't open it), it should test if there is another daemon already running with some sort of ping, and there should be some logic to decide when and how to kill a problematic daemon. Only one kdbd should be running on the system.
- So I think at least a ping mechanism with timeouts should exist between client and server, and server and server.
Thoughts ?

Avi

For me all seems ok. So we're agree to release with a broken key links
implementation ? I'll try to have a look today or tomorrow about the
test suite
for make it consistent about what we expect from 0.6.4 (if patrice or
someone else
didn't do it yet).
Regards,
Yannick.
