/run pointing to /var/run instead of the opposite
Hi.
I'm running Debian unstable, and I have a chroot environment where I have
another Debian unstable installation. Today I've updated the chroot
environment because it was very dated, and I've noticed that /run is a
symbolic link pointing to /var/run, instead of the other way round:
In the chroot:
$ file /run /var/run/
/run: symbolic link to `/var/run'
/var/run/: directory
In the true system:
$ file /run/ /var/run
/run/: directory
/var/run: symbolic link to `/run'
I think I can do the changes myself by hand, but I wonder if it will be
appropriate (maybe is that way for a reason), or if I have hit a bug that I
should report.
I need to change it because I need an application in the chroot to connect to
CUPS from outside the chroot, and this is done through a socket on
(/var)/run/cups. And schroot can't do the bind mount if the chroot /run is a
link.
Thank you.
