Thanks for the information. /run is supposed to be a tmpfs filesystem, listed in /lib/init/fstab, with /var/run a symlink to /run.
The failed upgrade from lucid to precise was a bug which ideally we would figure out. I'm not sure how your issues with /run came to be, but it may be possible to reproduce it since you gave the detailed steps you took - thanks for that. ** Changed in: dnsmasq (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New ** Also affects: update-manager-core (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: dnsmasq (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to dnsmasq in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/908614 Title: /run: Too many levels of symbolic links To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/debian-base-files/+bug/908614/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
