Public bug reported:

When first using screen after every reboot I am getting the following
message:

$ screen
Cannot make directory '/var/run/screen': Permission denied

When I start in with "sudo screen" the problem is fixed for all users
until the computer is rebooted.

Anyone know how to fix this?
