Hi,

We have received a bug report about psad in ubuntu:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/psad/+bug/250088

This could happen if /var/run is mounted as tmpfs.
I have patched it with the attached patch, which I believe could be helpful 
for Debian too.

Would the daemon start/stop as well if /var/run/psad is not there?
If not we would have to modify the init file as well.

Cheers,

Cesare
