bind9 init script status_of_proc() call should use pid

Hi Lamont-

Debian upstream has accepted the full status_of_proc() function, including pid file support. This simplifies the bind9 status action. It requires lsb-base >= 3.2.14.

I'm dropping this updated patch here for posterity, perhaps you can integrate it into Debian's bind9 in due time, when lsb-base 3.2.14 hits 'testing'.

Thanks,
:-Dustin

This bug was fixed in the package bind9 - 1:9.5.0.dfsg.P2-4

bind9 in oneiric still has this problem:

you can reproduce as follow:
- bind not running:

/etc/init.d/bind9 status
echo $?
4

the correct lsb output is 3

same problem amavis and many other scripts, this way you cannot use ubuntu lsb script in cluster products such as pacemaker
