This service is written strangely, and a tmpfiles fragment is definitely needed to deal with proftpd's failure at picking sane pidfile locations. The attached service should work just fine assuming the pidfile dir is created. The install scriptlet and tmpfiles fragment should be added to the package as well.
   proftpd.install (0.1 KiB)
   proftpd.tmpfiles (0 KiB)
   proftpd.service (0.2 KiB)
