[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Question: mount /var/run as tmpfs

Hello all the Debian Community!

It is possible to detect if kernel supports tmpfs and mount it 
on /var/run, /var/lock, /var/tmp and maybe /tmp and may be other places. This 
can be made in one of the appropriate debian packages and made configurable 
through debconf. The package to fit this, I think, is initscripts.

How do you think, would it be appreciated? Does it potentionally violates some 
policy for the particular directory from what I mentioned? May be you will 
suggest some other directores. I want to know because I want to do this.

Thank you!
