[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#507578: RC by #d-d vote

[martin f krafft]

severity 507578 serious
thanks

< madduck> if libvirt-bin provides /var/run/libvirt in the package but the init.d script fails if it does not exist, is that RC?
< madduck> /var/run is not a tmpfs by default, but could be.
< Clint> s/c/sh/
< madduck> yeah yeah
< madduck> important...
< Clint> i'd call it RC
< Maulkin> I don't think it is. In a default setup, does it work?
< liw> I don't know if it is RC, but I think it shoud be
< weasel> I used to say important, but that was with etch or sarge
< weasel> nowadays having var/run in a tmpfs isn't as weird anymore, it should work
< weasel> make it important but get it fixed anyway? :)
< KiBi> critical, just in case
< weasel> having packages work with a fresh /var/run is useful for other reasons also
< weasel> usually I exclude var/run from backups for instance
< liw> weasel, indeed
< madduck> I wholeheartedly agree. Can I paste the above to the bug report while bumping the severity?
< madduck> that's clearly a yes
