Package: screen
Version: 4.0.3-0.3+b1
Severity: normal

 Recently I switched RAMRUN=yes in /etc/default/rcS to make /var/lock/
 available as a ram file system. Unfortunately it produces a side
 effect for screen.

> screen -ls
Cannot make directory '/var/run/screen': Permission denied

 It is understandable because screen is setgid of utmp, and /var/run has
 permissions 0755 and owner of root.root.

 The simplest way to get rid of it to create /var/run/screen
 in /etc/init.d/screen-cleanup script.
 Something like this
    if [ ! -d $SCREENDIR ]; then
        mkdir -m 0777 $SCREENDIR
    else
    ...

 Yu.
