Description Michel Lang 2013-01-06 02:51:02 UTC
nzbget-9.0 (and maybe also the previous version 0.8) creates the directory /run/nzbget on emerge.

The directory is deleted after a reboot and nzbget crashes while trying to create a lock file in /run/nzbget/.

A simple workaround would be to create the directory in the provided init script, e.g. using this line in the start() section:

[ ! -e /run/nzbget ] && mkdir -m 750 /run/nzbget && chown "${NZBGET_USER}":"${NZBGET_GROUP}" /run/nzbget

Reproducible: Always
