I got notification from the PTS on this bug and I've had some discussion with Gregor Herrmann about it. Further down the same page linked to above states "It is not currently planned to require transition from /var/run and /var/lock for Wheezy.", so AFAICT this won't cause mumble-server not to be shipped with Wheezy. http://wiki.debian.org/ReleaseGoals/RunDirectory#Packages_using_.2BAC8-var.2BAC8-run_and_.2BAC8-var.2BAC8-lock Note that making the transition from /var/run to /run requires adding a versioned initscripts dependency. For more on that, see: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=676560 Also concerning Wheezy, mumble-server 1.2.3-349-g315b5f5-2.1 has already transitioned to it, so things should be okay there AFAIK. -- Chris -- Chris Knadle chris.kna...@coredump.us -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
