Hi Mark and anyone affected. Just to clarify the remaining part of the
issue:

>From the various test scenarios which I have tried, the initial issue of
the client failing to restart in the presence of stale lock files and
sockets appears to be resolved. That is, lock files pointing to dead or
recycled PIDs should not prevent client starting if the client is in
fact not running. This can be verified by checking processes matching
PIDs are not landscape:

  ls -l /var/lib/landscape/client/sockets/*.sock.lock
  readlink -v /var/lib/landscape/client/sockets/*.sock.lock | xargs ps


However, there is an issue of processes not cleaning their lock/sock at exit. 
This issue affects all currently supported releases (as far as 16.04) and 
should be addressed in an upcoming patch.
