Just downgrading base-files to 6.1 did unfortunately not work for me because
/run was not removed due to being "not empty" and I had to remove it manually.

Good to see you here Roger. I handled the bug by downgrading udev, libudev,
libgudev-1.0-0 to 166-1 and base-files to 6.1, but am not sure if that is
actually the best way to deal with it. I guess that the underlying problem
(initscripts) has to be solved first and that base-files 6.2 (6.3 / 6.2-1?)
should have a versioned dependency on the not yet uploaded initscripts
version. I am therefore unsure if a downgrade of udev is actually a good idea,
advisable or necessary, but it seems to me as if the init script of udev is
buggy in that it does not fall back to /dev if /run is not writable.

What would be, in your opinion, to be the best way to deal with it?
