Version: 1.14.5
Severity: normal

Hi,

look:

$ sudo debian/exim4-base.exim4.init start
Starting MTA: exim4.
$ sudo cat /var/run/exim4/exim.pid
8394
$ pstree -ap 8394
exim4,8394 -bd -q30m
$ sudo /sbin/start-stop-daemon --stop --pidfile /var/run/exim4/exim.pid --retry 
5 --quiet --oknodo
/sbin/start-stop-daemon: warning: failed to kill 8394: No such process
$ pstree -ap 8394
$ sudo cat /var/run/exim4/exim.pid
8394
$

I start an exim, verify that daemon and pid file exist, and then
invoke start-stop-daemon (as lsb-base's killproc() does).

start-stop-ademon kills the process and then complains that the
process does no longer exist.

This warning seems wrong and should not be given.

Greetings
Marc
