commit e9a3bfcddb20d935de77400fbfbde601c5f46004 Author: Sven Eckelmann sven@narfation.org Date: Mon Feb 15 21:01:26 2021 +0100
alfred: Allow start of server without valid interface
The alfred server always needs interfaces to operate on. But these interfaces might not exist at the moment when the daemon process is started. This caused an error and stopped the process.
But alfred is able to deal with interfaces which disappeared at runtime but existed at startup. To force a similar behavior for the alfred startup, the parameter "--force" or "-f" is introduced.
