You don't have to delete the debian patch.
Changing the user seems to have been corrected and so it's now unnecessary, but a new  "bug" appeared  in the patch as radiusd.conf seems to have been modified.

here is a little diff showing what to change in the patch so it works (well works for me anyway):

i`ve tried in a test environment with root uid/gid  and no probs with
read/write conf/log files.
so it works ok in debug mode ( tested from another pc with ntradping ) .

Hi,
    

i deleted the patch 01 line from the  00 file. but freeradius doesnt
starts in normal mode.no errors,no open UDP,TCP port
( netstat -ntlp and netstat -nulp dont show nothing like 1812 ,1813  )
, but in debug mode it`s ok.
      

its unable to read config files or unable to write to the
logfile or write the PID file etc.  what does
radiusd -x  (small x, partial debug) say?
