The /run/vnstat directory must also be owned by the vnstat user since 
vnstat no longer runs as root. I'll pass this along to the maintainer as 
a solution.

When the vnstat service attempts to start as the vnstat user it will be 
unable to create /var/run/vnstat.pid (a.k.a. /run/vnstat.pid) and will exit.
