[libdvbpsi-devel] [PATCH] dvbinfo: fix error: 'daemon' is deprecated: first deprecated in OS X 10.5 [-Werror, -Wdeprecated-declarations]

[Jean-Paul Saman]

Michael,

I'll apply the patch anyway, since it should build cross-platform thus also
on MacOS X Maverick.
Rewriting the code to not use daemon() function is something that can be
done at a later time.

Thanks again for the patch.

Kind regards,
Jean-Paul Saman
