Package: auditd
Version: 1:3.0.9-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
when running with an initially empty /var partition, the auditd
currently fails to start as the log directory is not present.
The attached patch adds a tmpfiles dropin to let systemd create
the directory on boot. If the directory is already present,
this is a noop.
For details, please also see #945269
Best regards,
Felix Moessbauer

Subject: [PATCH 1/1] create /var/log/audit with tmpfiles.d as well
When running with an initially empty /var partition, the auditd
currently fails to start as the log directory is not present. For that,
we use tmpfiles.d to let systemd create the directory on boot.
If the directory is already present, this is a noop.
