What is dsme?

Hello,

some of the startup scripts (e.g. gconf-daemon.sh) try to execute a dsmetool
located in /usr/sbin. I couldn't find any source package which contains it.

What is it and where do i get it? I guess i need it to create working maemo
filesystems with OpenEmbedded.

Greetings

Florian

DSME is the Device State Management Entity, and dsmetool monitors is
basically a process lifeguard. It's not currently released under a
free license =(

All init-scripts that lack an alternative invocation of
start-stop-daemon instead of dsmetool when dsmetool isn't installed
should be bug-reported.
