I have fixed this issues. The new packages (I have not changed the
version BTW) do the startup just fine. Or at least the logs show up
properly.

I have not been able to make it send sounds (but that might be due
to an unconfigured sound card). In any case, I've somewhat lost interest
in the package, I expected it to use the packets that were being received
in the network interface as a source of sounds, but I see (digging into
the code) that currently there is only a log interpreter.
It turns out that the only think interesting currently is the
dynamic sound mixing module, which looks quite good. However, for
log-interpretation I do prefer log-analys/logcheck. I just thought it
would base the sounds on packets (setting the card on promiscuous mode)
not on logs. Oh well.
The new packages work for me (I mean that they start/stop
corrently and the logs look fine, no sound though). I haven't played with
it, feel free to take over and try to make them work :)
