This socket is not important at all for normal BitlBee in use. In fact, I'm not sure if there's anything that uses this socket so far. It's just there so future packages could maybe use it to send IPC commands to automatically restart the master daemon, for example.
IOW, you just blew up a little bit of syslog noise into a bug that could throw BitlBee out of the next Debian release. :-) > Btw, bitlbee has a "User =" directive in his configuration file, so i > guess setting the user in the init script is useless and misleading. > Yep, that one wasn't there yet when the init script was written (>2 years ago). I got a patch here that switches to using this instead of letting start-stop-daemon do this, that'll solve the problem. I'll do an upload soonish.
