Bug Description
After failed start during the boot time I tried to start proftpd manually:
ad@sky:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/proftpd start
Starting ProFTPD ftp daemon: sky - mod_delay/0.4: error opening DelayTable '/var /run/proftpd/
Then I have created missing directory:
ad@sky:~$ sudo mkdir /var/proftpd
And started proftpd:
ad@sky:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/proftpd start
Starting ProFTPD ftp daemon: proftpd
Please note, that after restart I have to recreate this (/var/run/proftpd) directory.

This is due to /var/run being on a tmpfs. A temporary fix is to add
[ ! -d /var/run/proftpd ] && mkdir /var/run/proftpd
to /etc/init.
