All,
I think we should support the /run directory [1] [2]. The issue is
that there are at least two packages, udev and dracut, in gentoo, which
support the use of this directory. Support for it is being worked on in
openrc, and systemd will use it once it comes into the tree.
I, as well as several others, believe we should proactively create this
directory in a new release of baselayout, so that we will avoid bugs in
the future when packages start requiring it.
/run seems yet another directory cluttering the hierarchy to solve a
fringe issue, still I don't disagree it might be useful and is sort of
cleaner than /var/run.
That shouldn't be read as endorsing the peculiar and conceptually broken
init replacement called systemd.
