System
- System.Posix
  - System.Posix.Daemonize

Depends on 7 packages(full list with versions):

base, bytestring, extensible-exceptions, filepath, hsyslog, mtl, unix

Provides two functions that help writing better UNIX daemons, daemonize and serviced: daemonize does what a daemon should do (forking and closing descriptors), while serviced does that and more (syslog interface, PID file writing, start-stop-restart command line handling, dropping privileges).
