PyGopherd does not have any support for running from inetd or xinetd at present. That support would probably be trivial to implement, but it's just not there right now.

Let me explain some of the errors you're getting:

That's because PyGopherd attempts to listen to a port that is already being listened on by xinetd.

Unfortunately, all detach does is tell PyGopherd to run as a Unix daemon -- that is, it forks itself off, continues listening for connections in the backgrouns, and returns immediately.
