Package: tmux
Version: 1.3-1~bpo50+2
Severity: important


When running tmux as a non-root user, the program gives errory "can't create 
socket: Permission denied". The man page says sockets are created in /tmp but 
they are actually being created in /var/run where the non-root user has no 
permission to write. If I manually create /var/run/tmux and chmod it 777, I can 
run tmux as non-root.
