Hello Daniel

no errors during installation. I also tried to purge psad and reinstall
(the first was an update) without success. All this with 2.0.1-2.

postinst exists, but I can't find any reference to a /usr/lib/psad
directory: as far as I can see the postinst script only creates the fifo
in an existing $RUNDIR (/var/lib/psad) directory.

I assume that since the fifo is there, the dir has either left after
purge of the old version or created by another script.

After installation I don't have any /usr/lib/psad directory and I
suppose that this is correct if the PSAD_LIB_DIR must be /var/lib/psad.
Therefore I suspect that there is some problem parsing the config file.
In /usr/sbin/psad, at line 175 I found the fallback value

my $psad_lib_dir = '/usr/lib/psad';

while in /etc/psad/psad.conf at line 360 I found:

PSAD_LIB_DIR    /var/lib/psad;

Note that the config file in Debian is in the default position
(/etc/psad/psad.conf), so it _should_ be parsed anyway.

Thanks

Mau
