<PRE>Le 11/09/2012 12:23, Sander Lepik a &#233;crit :
&gt;<i> 11.09.2012 13:15, Guillaume Rousse kirjutas:
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> [...]
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> The /run - /var/run merge (/usrmove) is supposed to make the change
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> transparent for applications. Manually converting applications to
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> explicitely refers to the new location doesn't change its usefulness.
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Well, if your system can't mount /var for some reason then keeping
</I>&gt;<i> things on /run might make recovery easier.
</I>Then we probably should not refer to systemd directory as 
/usr/lib/systemd, but as /lib/systemd for exactly the same reason.

Also, the usefulness of an available /run when /var is quite discutable, 
whereas its main purpose is to store pid files for backgroud processes, 
most of them using /var/lib for storing their data.

Operators killed when huge stack of backup tapes fell over.
