Fix for Kodi flatpak
I posted about the failure of Kodi:
- Kodi flatpak does not work — December 01, 2024
We can blame flatpak; however, EasyOS has an unusual arrangement of symlinks. Both /run and /var/run are symlinks to /tmp/run, which was done as it was originally planned to have /tmp folder as a tmpfs, and /run and /var/run symlinked into that will mean they will just disappear at shutdown.
However, as Easy defaults to running sessions in RAM, /tmp, /run and /var/run will disappear anyway, no need for a tmpfs.
Most distributions have /run as an actual folder, maybe with a tmpfs on it, with /var/run symlinked to it. So I have changed Easy to the same. Github commit:

This should fix Kodi flatpak.
