Hi!
It becomes increasingly popular to store /tmp, /var/run, and /var/lock
on a tmpfs. Unfortunately this breaks packages which expect a
persistent subdirectory there (this is a bit unclear in the LSB
specification).
Would you consider applying the attached patch, so that the directory
is guaranteed to be present? Thank you!
Martin

Dovecot creates the directory if it isn't found, except it does give a
warning about it. Actually that's a bug in my safe_mkdir() call, fixed
now:

Ok so we don't need the patch then.
