Hello,
I can reproduce this, the error is generated when killproc invokes
/sbin/start-stop-daemon --stop --pidfile /var/run/exim4/exim.pid --retry 5
--quiet --oknodo
It is easy to reproduce, start exim, invoke the abovementioned s-s-d
command. stracing s-s-d seems to suggest that s-s-d expects exim4 to
remove the pidfile when it terminates, but exim does not. s-s-d then
tries to terminate exim4 *again* and fails.
