Package: fetchmail
Version: 6.2.5-18
Severity: wishlist
File: /etc/init.d/fetchmail

I wish it would tell the truth, that it didn't start anything, as one
was already running.

# pidof fetchmail
7021
# /etc/init.d/fetchmail start
Starting mail retrieval agent: fetchmail.
# pidof fetchmail
7021

Also tell the truth, that you didn't stop anything:
# pidof fetchmail
# /etc/init.d/fetchmail stop
Stopping mail retrieval agent: fetchmail.
#

The Truth, else debugging is even tougher.
