setroubleshootd socket directory is missing so sealert does not work

[pacificnw]

Binary package hint: setroubleshoot

Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty server x86 beta

sapere@seubuntu9:~$ sudo apt-cache policy setroubleshoot
setroubleshoot:
  Installed: 2.0.12-2
  Candidate: 2.0.12-2
  Version table:
 *** 2.0.12-2 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/universe Packages

Expected:
-------------
sudo sealert -l da87160b-4c6f-42f8-8c3a-56e11470e8e2 (to work, removed correct output)

Observed defect:
----------------------
sapere@seubuntu9:~$ sealert -l da87160b-4c6f-42f8-8c3a-56e11470e8e2
failed to connect to server: No such file or directory

/var/run/setroubleshoot directory is missing so socket is not created for sealert
and has to be created manually and setroubleshootd restarted.

I've put a potential fix into my PPA: https://launchpad.net/~kitterman/+archive/ppa - I just uploaded it, so it will be awhile before it's there.

Please let me know if this solves the problem (I don't use SELinux, so I can't test this myself).

Bug 354197 blocks progress on this, so it's not possible to fix it for Karmic. In the mean time, if it's otherwise working.

.... manually recreating /var/run/setroubleshoot should work around the
problem.
