This bug was fixed in the package audit - 1:2.2.2-1ubuntu2

---------------
audit (1:2.2.2-1ubuntu2) raring; urgency=low

  * Disable auditd network listener with --disable-listener (LP: #1026852)
    - debian/rules: Reduce the risk of a remote attack on auditd, which
      runs as root, by not building the code that listens for audit messages
      over the network. This will prevent users from using auditd as a
      centralized audit message aggregator, but this feature is rarely used.
  * Don't build against libwrap since only auditd's network listener used it
    - debian/control: Remove libwrap0-dev Build-Dependency
    - debian/rules: Remove --with-libwrap from configure arguments
  * Remove libev-dev Build-Dependency (LP: #1026852)
    - debian/control: The upstream audit sources embed and build against their
      own version of libev. This is not desirable, but there's no reason to
      list libev-dev as a build dependency at this time.
