Comment (by Giova84):

 Replying to [ticket:12638 Giova84]:

Now, instead, I made a configuration file called "polipo", placed inside
 /boot/system/data/user_launch with the following content:


{{{
      service x-vnd.Polipo-Proxy {
              launch /bin/polipo
              no_safemode
      }
}}}


 I've also tried using


 {{{
         job system-proxy {
                 launch /bin/polipo
                 no_safemode
         }
 }}}


 But the issue with reboot and shutdown is still here. So, maybe is not
 permitted to using the launch_daemon to run cli apps or bash script at
 startup? The fact is that the launch_deamon also permits to automatically
 relaunch apps when they crashs/fails, which would be very useful for
 background apps. I'm waiting for the reply from Axel :-)
