Public bug reported:

When starting isc-dhcp-server, the following appears in syslog:

Apr  5 01:20:06 nibbler dhcpd: Can't create PID file /var/run/dhcpd.pid: 
Permission denied.
Apr  5 01:20:06 nibbler kernel: [293336.249992] type=1400 
audit(1333614006.094:47): apparmor="DENIED" operation="mknod" parent=1 
profile="/usr/sbin/dhcpd" name="/run/dhcpd.pid" pid=12427 comm="dhcpd" 
requested_mask="c" denied_mask="c" fsuid=107 ouid=107

Even when adding to dhcpd.conf:

pid-file-name "/var/run/dhcp-server/dhcpd.pid";

it produces:

Apr  5 01:33:39 nibbler kernel: [294149.878702] type=1400
audit(1333614819.902:48): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" parent=1
profile="/usr/sbin/dhcpd" name="/run/dhcp-server/dhcpd.pid" pid=13392
comm="dhcpd" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=107 ouid=107

due to not having read access in the AppArmor profile:

  /{,var/}run/dhcp-server/dhcpd{,6}.pid w,

If this is truly where the pid should be, the compiled-in default should
be changed, as well as the AppArmor profile tweaked for read access.
