That solves the sudo mystery, but others remain. One is /var/run/exim4/, which is not installed, /var/run/apache2/, /var/run/hplip/, /var/run/identd/, /var/run/sshd/, and others, which are empty. I would expect them to be gone. In addition, /tmp is only cleaned when I do it manually. Frits -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
