Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: apcupsd

In apcupsd, Ubuntu 8.04.4, apcupsd-3.14.2:

The PID used by apcupsd is hardcoded in src/lib/apcfile.c and
include/defines.h to apcupsd.pid.

This breaks the expectation that start-stop-daemon can specify its own
PID file, and hence allow multiple instances to be controlled by the
init scripts. This is useful when multiple UPSes are controlled by a
single server.

Expected behaviour: PID file to be specified on command line
Actual behaviour: PID file is hard coded to /var/run/apcupsd.pid

This may or may not be a bug upstream.

** Affects: apcupsd (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
