[PATCH 2/2] daemon: Verify base-path and interpolated-path early

From: Johannes Sixt <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:44:17
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

Any request to the daemon would fail if either interpolated-path or
base-path (if specified) would not be absolute. Hence, we can check those
paths for validity upfront and not start the daemon at all if the paths are
invalid.

Additionally, we now check that the base-path is an existing directory.
