Are you using MacPorts launchd plist which uses daemondo?

I don't like this approach at all. Just do away with the MacPorts  
plist and make your own and add something like "Requires" and  
"DiskArbitration".

I'm sure there is a good reason for daemondo but I don't know what  
that is.

Launchd is already there, powerful and documented.

Daemondo is either not powerful or not documented.

Since we are already writing to /Library/LaunchDaemons/ why not just  
use Apples launchd instead?

Good to know.
