This bug was reported in Launchpad:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/189623
In Ubuntu /var/run is mounted as tmpfs, so directory /var/run/tenshi
does not exist when the system is rebooted. Therefore tenshi cannot
write it's pid file and fails to start. This problem was fixed for
Ubuntu with the attached patch.
Although Debian does not mount /var/run as tmpfs, this patch may still
be useful for some users or for future use.
