flumotion needs /var/run/flumotion to store PID files and runtime
informations. On some systems (e.g. Ubuntu), /var/run is mounted on
a tmpfs and data is erased each time system stops or /var/run is
remounted, so it could be useful to check if /var/run/flumotion exists
and eventually create it if needed.

In Ubuntu, we've applied the attached patch to achieve the following:

  * debian/flumotion.init:
    - Create /var/run/flumotion if it does not exist (LP: #241118).

We thought you might be interested in doing the same.
