I have approx 22 client sites setup on Ubuntu servers.
While we are waiting for the Packages to be updated.

add :

# Set the correct rights
if [ -d /var/lib/hobbit/tmp ]; then
        chown -R hobbit.hobbit /var/lib/hobbit/tmp
        chown -R hobbit.hobbit /usr/lib/hobbit/client/tmp
fi

I add this behind :

# Create hobbitclient PIDDIR
if [ -d /var/run -a ! -d /var/run/hobbit ]; then
        mkdir -p /var/run/hobbit
        chown hobbit.hobbit /var/run/hobbit
fi
