[Bug 1073478] [NEW] squid3 does not clean up pid file

[Jan Groenewald]

Public bug reported:

Squid3 on Precise does not clean up its PID file, causing logrotate to 
spit out an error each night when cron runs it. This is on a server where
we want squid3 installed and ready to go but not running by default.

0 root at rackspace:/etc/mysql#start squid3 
squid3 start/running, process 10392
0 root at rackspace:/etc/mysql#cat /var/run/squid3.pid 
10392
0 root at rackspace:/etc/mysql#stop squid3 
squid3 stop/waiting
0 root at rackspace:/etc/mysql#cat /var/run/squid3.pid 
10392
0 root at rackspace:/etc/mysql#logrotate -f /etc/logrotate.d/squid3 
squid: ERROR: Could not send signal 10 to process 10392: (3) No such process
error: error running shared postrotate script for '/var/log/squid3/*.log '
