Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: upstart
The startup scripts creates a number of directories in /var/run at
startup, they are necessary for normal operation.
Sometimes, apparently randomly, some of those directories are not
created for some reason, and some applications fails to work. A reboot
will fix the problem temporary.
The following directories are not created when this bug is in effect:
/var/run/cups
/var/run/pppconfig
/var/run/samba
/var/run/screen
/var/run is mounted as tmpfs:
none on /var/run type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,mode=0755)
Description: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Release: 10.04
ii screen 4.0.3-14ubuntu1 terminal multiplexor with
VT100/ANSI terminal emulation
ii pppconfig 2.3.18ubuntu2 A text menu based utility
for configuring ppp
ii cups 1.4.3-1ubuntu1.2 Common UNIX Printing
