Hi Michael,
I see at least two possible intermediate results: The RHEL 7 folks do something, perhaps make a package, to make pseudo-persistence super easy to get. The RHEL 7 folks do something, perhaps make a package, to allow users to fix this particular problem, e.g. by adding pseudo-persisitence for a file used by a package.
I disagree vehemently. Please STOP giving any advice or making any suggestions along the lines of persisting /var/run. It *is* meant to be volatile. Anyone who is packaging an application for CentOS 7 must realise this, and package their application accordingly. NO OTHER SOLUTION is acceptable.
Folks, please stop giving bad advice or suggesting horrible hacks.
Stop trying to force a square peg into a round hole.
