That is correct.

The /etc/puppet/puppetd.conf shipped in lenny contains
'rundir=/var/run/puppet', and the package wont change your old
puppetd.conf, as the NEWS.Debian says:
* Handling of the rundir setting has been changed; we now store PID files
in /var/run/puppet, and the initscripts have been modified to ensure
that this directory exists on startup. It is no longer necessary to set
rundir explicitly in /etc/puppet/puppet.conf, and you should ensure that
you have no explicit rundir setting in your puppet.conf unless you want
to use a custom rundir setting for your own local purposes.
