Hmm, not sure what you mean here.
[<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">colin at mga2</A> ~]$ ls -ld /var/run
drwxr-xr-x 38 root root 4096 Jan 23 04:04 /var/run/
That dir is also owned by root with 755 perm. It shouldn't make any odds
to permissions.
><i> Is there a list of packages which have moved to subdirectories of /run
</I>><i> and may now be broken too?
</I>
Again I don't think so. The fact that /var/run is just a symlink now
should be irrelevant.
Also the fact that /run is mounted on tmpfs vs real fs again should not
alter permissions in any way - all it really means is that
a) it'll be cleared at boot
b) we have to create files/folders with appropriate ownership/perms
during early boot via tmpfiles.
So I'm not really sure what you're saying here, but I don't think it is
any more broken now than it would have been before using /var/run directly.
