If following the book to build NM, rundir shouldn't be this.  Quote from
meson-log.txt:

nmrundir: /run/NetworkManager

Thus either you've deviated from the book building NM, or you are using
some NM plugin out of the book for VPN.  In either case you need to
either figure it out yourself, or provide more information (i.e. what
the out-of-book package you are using, and how did you configure the
build of it).
