Description Jaromír Cápík 2014-01-14 20:08:40 UTC
Description of problem:
Hello. As /run is mounted as tmpfs, the content is erased with each reboot and therefore it doesn't make sense to install anything into that directory.

The following packages need to be fixed ...

$ repoquery --whatprovides /var/run/*
avahi-0:0.6.31-23.fc21.x86_64
avahi-0:0.6.31-23.fc21.i686
pam-0:1.1.8-4.fc21.x86_64
pam-0:1.1.8-4.fc21.i686
cups-1:1.7.1-1.fc21.x86_64
dbus-1:1.6.18-2.fc21.x86_64
pam-0:1.1.8-4.fc21.x86_64
pam-0:1.1.8-4.fc21.i686
mdadm-0:3.3-4.fc21.x86_64
initscripts-0:9.50-2.fc21.x86_64
ppp-0:2.4.5-33.fc20.x86_64
screen-0:4.1.0-0.17.20120314git3c2946.fc20.x86_64

Comment 1 Jaromír Cápík 2014-01-14 20:09:06 UTC
These should probably be ghosted ...

%attr(755,root,root) %{_localstatedir}/run/screen
%attr(775,root,screen) %{_localstatedir}/run/screen

Comment 2 Jaromír Cápík 2014-01-30 16:27:23 UTC
NOTE: If the directory is needed in between the installation and the consequent reboot, then it's better to create it with proper rights in the %post section. Anyway it's up to you to decide how to deal with this report. Closing as WONTFIX or NOTABUG is a solution too.

Comment 3 Petr Hracek 2014-04-18 12:49:13 UTC
The issue was fixed by commit (https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/scm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20140414/1227019.html) -> CLOSED RAWHIDE
