4) add-openser-run-dir.patch
This creates a ".dirs" file in the debian directories to add
"/var/run/openser" to the packaging system. Otherwise this directory
must be manualy created, and it will be sometimes after a reboot
deleted (at least on ubuntu). This is much more user friendly and
avoid confusion why the server would not start.
what will be the purpose of the /var/run/openser directory? openser
does not use it ..afaik...
When running openser as non-root user it can't write its pid file into
/var/run since this is owned by root in ubuntu. That's why there is a
need for the /var/run/openser directory owned by the openser user.
Ubuntu and I think Debian too cleans the /var/run folder on reboot and
so the /var/run/openser gets deleted on every reboot without the
add-openser-run-dir.patch.
