Package: screen Version: 4.1.0~20120320gitdb59704-9 Severity: wishlist screen currently has an init script to set up /var/run/screen. Please consider adding native systemd support as well.
I've attached a file screen.conf to install in /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d, which sets up /var/run/screen. That then makes /etc/init.d/screen unnecessary, so screen should also install a symlink /lib/systemd/systemd/screen -> /dev/null to prevent it from running. (It's possible that screen.conf should also have "z /var/run/screen", to correspond to the restorecon call in the initscript, but I'm not an SELinux expert, so I don't know.) Note that this just covers the permissions of screen as installed by the package. If an admin wants to use dpkg-statoverride to change the permissions of screen and give it a different group or make it setuid root, it's trivial to also install an overriding /etc/tmpfiles.d/screen with corresponding permissions. Nonetheless, that'd be worth mentioning in NEWS.Debian. - Josh Triplett -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.13-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages screen depends on: ii libc6 2.18-3 ii libpam0g 1.1.8-2 ii libtinfo5 5.9+20140118-1 screen recommends no packages.
