ld.so.cache is just fine, the problem is that the lib is on a

Why don't you start a process monitor, either at the end of the rcS

" that you are using e.g. Devuan, and that you are
concerned about it for some reason.
Depending about how many who is doing so, you might be singled out.

Don't know about "recommended", but you can

if [ ! -d / ]; then mkdir -p /var/run/barman; fi
. in the crontab
