Firewall lock file

I am constantly receiving the following in e-mail from rancid.

Old lockfile still exists:
-rw-r-----    1 rancid   rancid          0 Nov  8 10:01 /tmp/.firewalls.run.lock

I can go in and delete the file but it eventually comes back within a few hours.  Can anyone tell me what is going on here so that I can fix it.
