Please file a new bug report against the 'initscripts' package in Ubuntu using the command 'ubuntu-bug initscripts' and include a copy of /var/log/dist-upgrade/apt-term.log from the affected system, and subscribe me to the resulting bug.
After you upgraded, did you reboot? If your system crashed after upgrade, instead of being cleanly shut down, this would explain the failure to migrate /var/run.
Tom,
Please file a new bug report against the 'initscripts' package in Ubuntu using the command 'ubuntu-bug initscripts' and include a copy of /var/log/ dist-upgrade/ apt-term. log from the affected system, and subscribe me to the resulting bug.
After you upgraded, did you reboot? If your system crashed after upgrade, instead of being cleanly shut down, this would explain the failure to migrate /var/run.
Do you have /var/run in your /etc/fstab?
