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.
