Ah! That's due to switching to use libutempter. We're getting quite
close to the issue.
I though wonder how to fix that for Bionic in the best way. Maybe
adding something like this to screen.preinst (not postinst):
perms="`stat -c%a /usr/bin/screen`"
override=/etc/tmpfiles.d/screen-cleanup.conf
if [ $perms -eq 2755 ]; then
chmod 0777 /var/run/screen
[ -f $override ] || echo 'd /var/run/screen 0777 root utmp' > $override
I assume that this is nothing which would make sense to add to future
releases of Debian's screen package, or does it?
Regards, Axel
