I just looked at the init script, it's awful. I *just* realize that we
have both been quite stupidly arguing about the creation of
/var/run/fetchmail for a while, but it was completely braindead:
/var/run is purged on each reboot. *SIGH*
The correct thing to do is to remove all utter crap in the postinst
related to /var/run/fetchmail, add --no-create-home to the adduser
call, and check the directory exists in the init script.
I'll fix that as soon as I have SVN access.
