hi!
i'm not sure if this observation is correct (or already was discussed
here), but rc scripts may have to be modified for -current as /var/run
isn't persistent anymore. a tmpfs is mounted to /run and this in turn
is bind mounted to /var/run in rc.S:
# If /run exists, mount a tmpfs on it (unless the
# initrd has already done so):
if [ -d /run ]; then
if ! grep -wq "tmpfs /run tmpfs" /proc/mounts ; then
/sbin/mount -v -n -t tmpfs tmpfs /run -o
mode=0755,size=32M,nodev,nosuid,noexec
fi
# Make sure that mounts below /run are visible in both /run and
/var/run:
/sbin/mount --make-shared /run
fi
and
# Bind mount /run to /var/run:
mount -o bind /run /var/run
the rc scripts of daemons included in slackware have been changed
accordingly, e.g. rc.bind:
bind_start() {
# Make sure /var/run/named exists:
mkdir -p /var/run/named
some programs may create their directory themselves (like mariadb
seems to do), others will complain on startup if it doesn't exist. in
any case, installing /var/run/$name via a package is lost after reboot.
i think it usually is enough to just create the directory like it's
done in rc.bind.
