massive-passive-client does not start

[zoide]

The massive-passive-client does not create /var/run/massive-passive . Thus it does not start

weird, the package contains the appropriate directory:

e# dpkg -L massive-passive-client |grep run
/var/run
/var/run/massive-passive

Must be that /var/run is now a tmpfs and will be cleaned up at boot time. So the massive-passive client (or the init script) should create this dir at start time.
