Yes. It was intended that /run be added in the etch->wheezy upgrade and that packages which required it would use a conditional dependency on initscripts. For wheezy->jessie it's fully supported by all init systems, and packages no longer need to have a dependency on initscripts since it will be guaranteed to be present. This is also in Debian Policy now IIRC. For both jessie and wheezy-backports, /run is guaranteed to be present. > > While I agree on the patch himself, I don't see an urge for that. > > There is no real cost in keeping that for now and axing once Jessie is > > released.

Not sure myself--all the necessary stuff outside initramfs-tools has been present since wheezy TTBOMK. Regards, Roger -- .''`.
