daemon fails on startup because pid file does not exist

[Ole]

Hi,

I use databases/postgresql-repmgr for database replication. Now the
daemon won't start if the pid file /var/run/repmgrd.pid does not exists.

so before start i have to run

	touch /var/run/repmgrd.pid
	chown postgres:postgres /var/run/repmgrd.pid

Is this a problem of the daemon process, of the init script or of my
setup? The init-script is below.

thanks 
Ole
