Where I see:

the line
ebegin "Cleaning /var/lock, /var/run"
( find /var/lock -type f -print0 | xargs -0 rm -f -- 1>&2 )
can be changed to:
ebegin "Cleaning /var/lock, /var/run"
( find /var/lock -type f -exec rm -f {} \; )
But more recently:

the command
$>find /var/lock -type f -exec rm -f -- {} \; 1>&2
will also delete files like ".keep", here is an example:
$>find /var/lock -type f
/var/lock/subsys/.keep
/var/lock/.keep
/var/lock/LCK..modem
And:
------- Additional Comment #17 From Tobias Sager 2003-07-08 02:01 EST
find /tmp -type f -not -name .keep -exec rm -f {} \;
would solve this.
So, it would seem to me that:
the line:
ebegin "Cleaning /var/lock, /var/run"
( find /var/lock -type f -print0 | xargs -0 rm -f -- 1>&2 )
can be changed to:
ebegin "Cleaning /var/lock, /var/run"
( find /var/lock -type f -not -name .keep -exec rm -f {} \; )
Does anyone else agree with my conclusion?
Thanks,
