[pacman-dev] Recreate empty missing filesystem directories

[Dan McGee]

This is fixed in pacman 4.0, but thought people might find this super
simple script helpful. A lot of people will find `/etc/cron.hourly/`
missing due to the removal of the adjtime cronjob; but at least on my
system there were a few more missing directories found.

$ cat /tmp/find-missing-dirs.sh

IFS=$'\n'
for path in $(pacman -Qql | grep '/$' | sort | uniq); do
        if [[ ! -d $path ]]; then
                echo $path
        fi
done
