Bug#435720: vegastrike: Vegastrike doesn't start if no KDE app is running

[Michal Kašpar]

Package: vegastrike
Version: 0.4.3.debian-1
Severity: normal

If there are no KDE apps running, vegastrike doesn't start and exits
with:
Link points to "/tmp/ksocket-mkaspar"
can't create mcop directory
As I run any KDE application (lets say kcalculator), that creats
aproprite KDE sockets in /tmp, vegastrike starts fine.
