Apache Airflow version

What happened?

When airflow celery worker command executed with -D option it crashes due to pid file being used at multiple places.

In 2.8.0 pid file is used in celery app and in run_command_with_daemon_option

Any ETA on this getting wrapped up? I am completely down in my environment using a service so I am having to run my worker in a tmux background session in order to keep the system working.

It will be relesed when the related PR will be merged and release done. But It's open source - you can apply the change in the PR to your installation and see if it solves the problem -that is the best way for you to get it faster and contribute by verifying the fix. See #36794. There is never ETA. Airrflow is created by volunteers and things are done when they are done. But - on the other hand, this is open source and you can do what I wrote above.
