So I looked in to that file and the actual line they were
referring 2 is numbered 15 and points fail2ban.pid to
/var/run/fail2ban/fail2ban.pid where it certainly lives with a
recent date. What is the problem exactly?
I am not sure about the "why" behind all this, but the preference of /run over /var/run is documented in the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard:
https://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/FHS_3.0/fhs/ch03s15.htmlOn my Debian 10 system, /var/run is a symlink to /run, allowing for compatibility with programs using that path.
