In maintainer's `generic-all-purpose-and-all-rpm-dists` spec-file there
is this scriptlet inside %install for creating/providing the needed

mkdir -p %{buildroot}%{_localstatedir}/spool/authdaemon/
./authmksock %{buildroot}%{_localstatedir}/spool/authdaemon/socket
touch %{buildroot}%{_localstatedir}/spool/authdaemon/pid.lock
touch %{buildroot}%{_localstatedir}/spool/authdaemon/pid
chmod 0777 %{buildroot}%{_localstatedir}/spool/authdaemon/socket
/endscriptlet/
My question about this is:
Can I take this one-by-one in my fedora-rpm or is it better to provide
the same functionality during %post and %preun?
Well surely sockets and PID files shouldn't be in /var/spool anyway,
they should be in /var/run (aka /run)...
On top of which I wouldn't expect them to be pre-created anyway - the
daemon would normally create them on startup, or have them created by
systemd when the daemon is started.
Anything which does need to be pre-created would have to be done using
tmpfiles.d once the files are in /run.
