Description: Adding fancontrol to the daemons will stop booting, because fancontrol won't go into daemon mode and prevents other daemons (especially a login manager) from loading.


Additional info:
current/lm_sensors 2.10.4-1

Steps to reproduce:
- Install and configure lm_sensors and fancontrol
- Add fancontrol somewhere to the daemon line, but in front of a possible login manager

A solution for this might be adding an & to /etc/rc.d/fancontrol in line 10:
[ -z "$PID" ] && /usr/sbin/fancontrol &
