In the absence of any other activity, if you do have time to spare to look at this, it would be much appreciated. While base-files is prevented from entering testing by this bug, newly installed wheezy systems will have broken /run support (it will be created as a symlink by debootstrap rather than a real directory). So having this fixed as soon as is possible would be quite desirable. Many thanks, Roger -- .''`.
