According changelog entry: Thanks for bringing this to our attention! dpkg 1.19.3 was migrated to testing only a couple days before smokeping 2.7.3-1, so maybe when Antoine and I were working on this release our tests were running on a previous dpkg version: I've tested out an install of smokeping on a fresh install with the init script but I didn't notice any error about the pid. I'll run more tests to try and reproduce this.
