Package: screen Version: 4.0.2-4.1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch If /var/run is on tmpfs, /var/run/screen doesn't exist until root runs screen the first time after a reboot. Normal users cannot use it:
wall:~> screen rsync -Pvr .debian/ piper:.debian
Cannot make directory '/var/run/screen': Permission denied
It would be great if screen could recreate that directory on boot.
The following is a patch against /etc/init.d/screen-cleanup:
