Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: system-tools-backends

If I try to stop system-tools-backends after it was already stopped, I
get an error. For example, if I run "sudo invoke-rc.d system-tools-
backends" twice, I get:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo invoke-rc.d system-tools-backends stop
 * Stopping System Tools Backends system-tools-backends                         
    [ OK ] 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo invoke-rc.d system-tools-backends stop
 * Stopping System Tools Backends system-tools-backends                         
           start-stop-daemon: warning: failed to kill 7993: No such process
                                                                                
    [ OK ]

This is because when I closed system-tools-backends the first time, it
left a stale PID file in /var/run. Manually deleting /var/run/system-
tools-backends.pid prevented the init script from failing again.
