Package: base-files
Version: 3.0.8.1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

As per the discussion on debian-devel, I am filing this bug with patch
to have base-files create the /run directory.  To summarise the
discussion, we need to move program state out of /etc but for some
programs that run early on during the boot process, /var is not mounted
and so /var/run is unavailable.  Thus Debian will be enhancing the FHS
by demonstrating it is possible to leave /etc totally under the admin's
control.  A proposed addition to the FHS will be forthcoming once we can
show that /run is useful.
