Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: spfmilter

Package: spfmilter
Version: 1.99+0.95
System: Dapper

After a fresh installation and the first reboot, the spfmilter does'nt start, 
if /var/run
is on a tmpfs. Reason: the directory /var/run/spfmilter does'nt exists. I 
attached a
patch for spfmilter.init, which creates the directory and set the owner on 
startup.

The Debian Bug#  is 392307.

Regards
Herbert Straub
