Public bug reported:

ubuntu 13.10 amd64
vnstat 1.11-2

Problem: 
Database files created by "vnstat -u -i NEW_IF" (/var/lib/vnstat/NEW_IF) are 
owned by root, the vnstat user cannot write to them.

Symptoms:
After adding a database, you always get the "Not enough data available yet." 
even if vnstat works perfectly in live mode (vnstat -i NEW_IF -l)

Workaround: 
Run those commands:
- chown vnstat:vnstat /var/lib/vnstat/NEW_IF
- vnstat -u -i NEW_IF

** Affects: vnstat (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
