Lennart Poettering has sent out a note warning Fedora users that they will see a new top-level /run directory soon. "In the past weeks key people from the Debian, Suse, Ubuntu and Fedora camps (and others, too) discussed the whole issue forth and back, to find a solution to stop the misuse of /dev before it becomes even more widespread. Various solutions have been suggested, but in the end it all boiled down to the fact that /var/run does not belong beneath /var and what we really want is a top-level directory /run, and that that is the only really clean solution. The only reason why nobody dared to actually implement such a directory was unwillingness to deal with the political backlash, especially messy discussions on mailing lists like this one." The ensuing discussion has not entirely disappointed, but it looks like /run will carry the day.
Lennart Poettering已经向Fedora用户发出通知，称他们即将在文件系统中见到一个顶级/run目录。“在过去的几周里，来自Debian, Suse, Ubuntu 和 Fedora等阵营的关键人物来回讨论了整个问题，以发现一个在事态变得更严重之前阻止人们误用/dev目录的解决方案。有很多解决方案被提及，但最终都涉及这一事实——/var/run不该属于/var，大家真正想要的是一个顶级的/run，而那也是唯一真正纯净的方案。没人敢真正实现该目录的唯一原因是他们不愿意处理政治上的压力（the political backlash），尤其是像在这样一个邮件列表当中的凌乱的讨论。”紧接着的讨论没有完全令人失望，看来/run即将实现。
