[Bug 1380080] Re: Cannot make directory '/var/run/screen': Permission denied (convert init to upstart)

NOTE - the issue is easily fixed (at least for me).  I want to run my
minecraft script (like others that seem to find this thread just like I
did) which requires screen.  However the default priority for my script
would be the same (i.e. 20) as the one for screen (which also is going
to be in the same rc.d folders) and since 'm' comes before 's' - it will
attempt to kick off first - and fail.

Solution:  when updating  rc.d - specify later and earlier priorities
for your scripts startup and shutdown than the requirements might have.
In my case "sudo update-rc.d minecraft defaults 99 10"  works like a
charm.
