Hi all
I want to use the dropbear package in a project
but I'm missing a functionality which allows me to
provide the pidfile name on the cmd-line.
I've created a diff which would provide this functionality
and I'd like to get some feedback on this patch.
Especially if it's going to be part of the next code-drop.
I've posted this diff already to Matt but unfortunately haven't received any feedback so far.
Anywy, here it is and let me know what you think !
