I do not consider this a bug. 1. /run should be cleaned on the next boot (it is tmpfs on typical installations isn't it?). 2. Default installation creates directory /var/lib/minidlna as home directory for minidlna user and system administrator could put media files in there. I can't remove this directory completely on package purge, because admin, not minidlnad manage files in this directory. I can't remove minidlna user either, because this could lead to /var/lib/minidlna have numeric owner/group. The next package installed will use this free uid/gid and get access to the files.
