The base-files side of this was fixed in base-files 6.4ubuntu1.
Changelog:
base-files (6.4ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low
* Merge from Debian unstable, remaining changes:
- Branding changes.
- Add /etc/lsb-release file.
- Add lsb-release-udeb package.
- Record md5sums of unmodified /etc/profile versions so that we can
upgrade it automatically.
- Various bashrc extensions.
- Do not install /usr/local dirs with staff group writeability, as there
are cases where somebody can become any user but root (like NFS).
- Update the motd upgrade handling to know about /etc/motd.tail.
- Add default /etc/networks file.
- Added information about the docs web page.
- Restore order line in /etc/host.conf with a comment.
- Ship /root mode 700 by default.
* Dropped changes:
- drop versioned dependency on libpam-modules, satisfied in all versions
since hardy (and earlier)
- remove /var/lock and /var/run: this is handled differently in Debian,
no reason to diverge
- fixing up permissions of files copied by ubiquity: transition completed
in lucid.
- debian/postinst.in: replace references to /var/run with /run: /run is
still a draft standard for the time being and should only be used for
those parts of the system that were being placed *other* than in
/var/run for various reasons (e.g., /dev/.udev, /lib/init/rw).
/var/run must continue to exist and be functional, and initscripts
guarantees a smooth transition from /var/run to /run once we are ready
to start doing away with /var/run (once the FHS officially ratifies
/run as its replacement), so there's no reason to diverge from Debian
here.
base-files (6.4) unstable; urgency=low
* Added /run. Closes: #620157.
* On new installs:
- Create /run/lock (debian-installer will remove it but this will
ensure that it exists even on chroot environments).
- Symlink /var/run to /run.
- Symlink /var/lock to /run/lock.
* On upgraded systems, initscripts will handle the transition to /run.
* Added "Breaks: initscripts << (2.88dsf-13.3)" to ensure that initscripts
is upgraded first, as otherwise udev would break.
* Thanks a lot to Roger Leigh.
** Changed in: base-files (Ubuntu Oneiric)
