 /var/run/tor is created on installation but apparently disappears. I
 observed this on Fedora 19 and 20.

 rpm -V tor
 missing     /var/run/tor

 /usr/bin/tor -f /etc/tor/torrc --pidfile /var/run/tor/tor.pid --log notice
 file /var/log/tor/tor.log --runasdaemon 1 --datadirectory /var/lib/tor
 --user _tor

 Tor runs fine nonetheless but restarting stoping and restarting doesn't
 work due to the missing pidfile.
