Normally, the /run directory is a tmpfs mount (the contents are only held in RAM, they're not actually stored on disc). So, anything that's inside that directory will always need recreating (if needed) after a reboot. Though, having said that, I think that things in it are always going to be created upon demand (such as while the user is logging in), rather than being created once then restored. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 4.12.9-300.fc26.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Aug 25 13:09:43 UTC 2017 x86_64 Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
