[Bug 930916] [NEW] amavis start-stop script fails to stop amavisd

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

On Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin using amavisd-new 2.6.5-0ubuntu3 the
amavis start-stop script fails to stop the daemon.

What occurs is the following:
sudo service amavis restart
Stopping amavisd: (not running).
Starting amavisd: The amavisd daemon is already running, PID: [{xxx}] (failed).

The installer script for amavisd-new has some errors as well probably
related(?).

Apparently this behavior has been reported for Debian:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=652026 and fixed in package version 2.7.0-1

** Affects: amavisd-new (Ubuntu)
     Importance: High
         Status: Confirmed

** Affects: amavisd-new (Debian)
     Importance: Unknown
         Status: Fix Released
