doveconf error upon boot up

doveconf

Pigeonhole version 0.5.1 (d9bc6dfe)
OS: FreeBSD 11.1-RELEASE-p9 amd64 zfs

I can send the entire output if necessary.
Error message upon boot up:
doveconf: error: t_readlink(/var/run/dovecot/dovecot.conf) failed: readlink() failed: No such file or directory
Starting dovecot.
Dovecot appears to start correctly
There is a link in the "/var/run/dovecot directory for dovecot.conf"
lrwx------ 1 root wheel 35B 2018-04-10 10:21:52 EDT dovecot.conf@-> /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
This error message has only started since the update to the latest version of dovecot. I am assuming it is just a harmless error message; however, I would like to confirm that hypothesis.

Hello,
I'm also running FreeBSD 11.1, Dovecot 2.3, and Pidgeonhole 0.5, I am not getting the error you are noticing. I also do have a symlinked /var/run/dovecot/dovecot.conf which goes to /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf.
Can you send a complete doveconf -n and your dovecot startup lines in /etc/rc.conf?
Thanks. Dave.

Hello Jerry,
From what I'm seeing here everything looks fine. Without seeing it i'm out of ideas.
Dave.

I've just started getting this error on Gentoo Linux.
I've been running dovecot-2.3.2.1 for some time and didn't notice it. I recently updated glibc from 2.26-r7 to 2.27-r6 and dovecot was hanging on startup.
Recompiling dovecot fixed the hang, but now I'm seeing the same error message as below.
