screen (4.1.0~20120320gitdb59704-10) unstable; urgency=low
- A systemd variant of /etc/init.d/screen-cleanup has been added. This
- means that some of the optional functionality of this init script is
- lost on systems running systemd.
-
- On systems running systemd the permissions of /var/run/screen are no
- more updated automatically if the local administrator changes the
- permissions of /usr/bin/screen with dpkg-statoverride. Instead he has
- to copy /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/screen-cleanup.conf to /etc/tmpfiles.d/ and
- override the permissions in there.
+ On systems running systemd, the management of /var/run/screen previously
+ handled by /etc/init.d/screen-cleanup now occurs via systemd-tmpfiles and
+ /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/screen-cleanup.conf. The installed version of that
+ file works for systems with the default screen permissions; if you override
+ the permissions of /usr/bin/screen with dpkg-statoverride as documented in
+ /usr/share/doc/screen/README.Debian, you should create an overriding file
+ /etc/tmpfiles.d/screen-cleanup.conf setting the corresponding permissions.
+ See /usr/share/doc/screen/README.Debian for details.
+
+ If you have already overridden the permissions of /usr/bin/screen, an
+ /etc/tmpfiles.d/screen-cleanup.conf has been created for you.
