[Koha] On reboot Ubuntu deletes /var/run files and directories

[Pseudo Admin]

On reboot Ubuntu deletes /var/run files and directories causing this error
when running zebra :

 *08:25:25-23/04 [fatal] lock file
/var/lock/koha/zebradb/biblios/zebrasrv.pid [No such file or directory]
*
A search on Google led me to this post on koha-dev:

*Yes, as I just found on closer inspection of the FHS documentation
[1], files in /var/run are supposed to be deleted or truncated at
boot.  Debian Etch clears files but leaves the subdirectories in
place, but Ubuntu and other systems that either mount /var/run as a
tempfs or are are aggressive about clearing /var/run get rid of the
subdirectories at boot.*

*Consequently, I will patch koha-zebra-ctl.sh to create the
subdirectories under /var/run if needed.*

I was just wondering what is the status of this fix ? Is it already included
in Koha 3b2?

Thanks!
