Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ircd-hybrid

Version: 1:7.2.2.dfsg.2-3

ircd-hybrid stores a PID file in /var/run/ircd/ircd-hybrid.pid.  The
package contains the directory /var/run/ircd. However on ubuntu /var/run
is a tmpfs and so this directory is lost at the next reboot.
Consequently it becomes impossible to stop or reload the ircd using the
usual init mechanism.

This will apply to any other package in ubuntu with files in /var/run
too.  A global check would be sensible.

** Affects: ircd-hybrid (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
