Thank you Osvaldo, Just now realized that we are talking about stable(lenny), so I guess not much of 'new and fancy' could be there I guess ;)
just out of curiosity,
1. what if you remove

> -rw-r--r-- root/root 6328 2010-03-05 16:08
> etc/fail2ban/.saf.jail.local.orig
still would fail to start?
2. what would be output (would it still crash?) with
fail2ban-client -v -v -v start
fail2ban-client -v -v -v -d
?
P.S. the fact that you managed to start the server doesn't mean that it
would do anything useful -- client is the one which instructs the server
on what to do (what jails to use etc), so running server without client
instructions does nothing... or after starting the server
fail2ban-client starts to work fine? ;)
