Comment # 6 on bug 1194322 from Felix Miata

The problem is the /etc/issue symlink links to /run/issue, which doesn't exist.
What does exist is /run/issue.d/. I have no idea how anything does or doesn't
appear in /run/. Nothing owns /run/issue.d/, which contains nothing. This has
freshly appeared on 3 more installations, all of which had last been dup'd in
May and are now on 20221221. What could have replaced /run/issue with
/run/issue.d/?
