Bug#823659: openssh-server: Missing privilege separation directory: /var/run/sshd



Package: openssh-server
Version: 1:7.2p2-5
Severity: normal

Rebooted my computer today and found that "ssh.service" did not start:

    Missing privilege separation directory: /var/run/sshd

"sudo mkdir /var/run/sshd" fixed the problem.

IMHO the best way to fix this problem permanently would be to add 
"debian/openssh-server.ssh.tmpfile" file with the following content:

~~~~
d /var/run/sshd 0755 root root
~~~~

Thanks.
