exim init.d script problem



Dear Mark and dpkg Team,

The following command on my debian unstable box:

root:~/tmp# start-stop-daemon --start --pidfile /var/run/exim/exim.pid
--exec /usr/lib/exim/exim3 -- -bd

Results in the following pid file:

root:~/tmp# ls -l /var/run/exim/
total 4
-rw-r--r--    1 root     mail            6 Mar 26 23:29 exim.pid-bd

And the following works good:

root:~/tmp# start-stop-daemon --start --pidfile /var/run/exim/exim.pid
--exec /usr/lib/exim/exim3 -- -bd -q30m
root:~/tmp# ls -l /var/run/exim/
total 4
-rw-r--r--    1 root     mail            6 Mar 26 23:30 exim.pid

(FYI, I use exim3 with exiscan, that's why I have to remove the -q30m
switch.)

I suppose this is a start-stop-daemon problem, but for safety's sake, I
have sent it to the exim3 maintainer Mark Baker, too.

Regards:
Ferenc
