Actually, you should have used /var/lib/<package-name>/. /var/lib/ is the location for persistent stuff. > There is also the partial-upgrades issue, upgrading to a version of > sysvinit that drops everything under /var/run/ on every reboot will > break every package currently relying on /var/run/* being > persistent. Stuff in /var/run/ isn't, and should not be presistent. It have not been that for a long time, if ever. The only things that has been left alone has been directories, and those will now disappear on reboots because it will become a tmpfs.
