And fun fact: not only RHEL 7 and thus CentOS 7 does so, but too Debian 9 and Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (I have no newer test install of that distro). And frankly speaking, I don't see any indication that this violates with the FHS and that /var/run must persist reboots. Can we please end this stupid discussion? Enough arguments have been exchanged to make clear that packages are broken if they ignore the fact that /var/run content is ephemeral. Alexander
