Subject: [PATCH gnome-team v5] gnu: glib: Set runstatedir.
Date: Fri, 6 Oct 2023 23:12:50 +0200

Glib has made /run the default runstatedir:

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/merge_requests/3101

However, in Guix, the default runstatedir is /var/run.

* gnu/packages/glib.scm (glib): Set runtime_dir to /var/run.
---

I changed my mind again!  Following the IRC discussion, Guix has a separate
/var/run and /run (and puts /run/current-system/ in /run).  So, /var/run/dbus
is actually the correct place to put the system session socket.
