Bug Description

Binary package hint: pymsnt

On Feisty, pymsnt can't create its pid file after a reboot, so it fails to start. The pymsnt init script tries to put the pid file in /var/run/pymsnt/pymsnt.pid, and the package creates the /var/run/pymsnt directory upon install, but because /var/run is a tmpfs filesystem, that directory isn't persistent.
