I noticed that when installing postgresql, /run/postgresql (on a systemd-based system) was not created. The tmpfiles.d entry /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/postgresql-12.conf got created just fine, but the systemd_tmpfiles_create function aborted when checking $ROOT in [1]. Looking at the example code in [2] which implies an empty $ROOT (otherwise the code there would output two leading slashes!) and the code a bit below [3], I think the check should be `[[ ${ROOT:-/} == / ]]` instead of `[[ ${ROOT} == / ]]` (when changing it manually everything works fine).

These functions should have been removed a long time ago. Today you're supposed to use tmpfiles.eclass.
