Package: heimdal-kdc Version: 1.6~git20120403+dfsg1-2 Severity: normal After upgrading to wheezy, I noticed that /var/lib/heimdal-kdc/slave-stats was no longer being updated by ipropd-master. Tracing revealed that the information was now being written to random looking 4-character file names in the current directory (/) of the process, resulting in file names like:

It does look like the filename is not properly initialized, unless explicitly set.
