Description Igor 2011-04-25 18:19:40 UTC

I have /var/run as tmpfs, so it is empty after boot.
GNOME disk utility (?) wants directory /var/run/udisks
that is not exist.

This is the message I've got from GNOME disk utility:
Error creating file system: helper exited with exit code 1: cannot create directory /var/run/udisks/job-mkfs-RgYT6O: No such file or directory

Reproducible: Always

$ grep var/run/udisks /var/db/pkg/sys-fs/udisks*/*
/var/db/pkg/sys-fs/udisks-1.0.2-r1/CONTENTS:dir /var/run/udisks

And from udisks source,

src/device.c: "Error creating file system: helper exited with exit code %d: %s\n%s",

So it seems like udisks should ensure first the directory exists, before trying to write into it
