Оболочка демона Python «Тайм-аут ввода-вывода подпроцесса», нужно несколько указаний

Я не очень хорошо разбираюсь в способе создания демона в Python, поэтому я пытаюсь установить и запустить сторонний open-source TeX Python Wrapper, я укусил ошибку, которую я действительно не понимаю.

Я добавил несколько отпечатков, чтобы помочь отлаживать.

Неисправность называется texdp.py

Когда я запускаю mathrand, который вызывает запуск texdp-сервера, я получаю следующую ошибку

output_fds  {8: 'dvi', 5: 'log', 6: 'logfile', 7: 'err'}

  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/tex/texdp.py", line 210, in _process
    raise SubprocessError, 'subprocess I/O timed out'

Часть ответственного кода прикреплена и расположена вокруг строки 200 в методе def _process.

Я понятия не имею, с чего начать искать, и что на самом деле означает эта ошибка. Любая помощь более чем приветствуется.
