Severity: normal

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

When trying to run /usr/sbin/stunnel after a fresh install of
stunnel4 it doesn't start and gives no messages.

The syslog then tells the problem:

Dec 18 14:57:42 belanna stunnel: LOG5[31732:3083032256]: stunnel 4.14 on 
i486-pc-linux-gnu PTHREAD+POLL+IPv6+LIBWRAP with OpenSSL 0.9.8a 11 Oct 2005
Dec 18 14:57:42 belanna stunnel: LOG5[31732:3083032256]: 500 clients allowed
Dec 18 14:57:42 belanna stunnel: LOG3[31734:3083032256]: Cannot create pid file 
/var/stunnel/stunnel.pid
Dec 18 14:57:42 belanna stunnel: LOG3[31734:3083032256]: create: No such file 
or directory (2)
 
After `md /var/stunnel` everything works as expected.

IIRC some maintainer script told me during install that some
directory - probably /var/stunnel - was not created.

BTW: Shouldn't a pidfile go into /var/run(/stunnel)/?

This bug was solved long ago, but the BTS was never told about it.
