yes... /bin/start-stop-daemon is that actually where your start-stop-daemon resides? It should be in /sbin ...at least in unstable it is... it's trying to run /bin/start-stop-daemon and not /sbin/start-stop-daemon... a quick fix would be to change the PATH statement to have /sbin first, but something else is tweaked..
