    The first solution seems the best to me because it concentrates all
the customization in one place, but, for completeness, an alternative to
the second solution is to add the line 'mkdir /var/run/barman' in
/etc/rc.local .

    Maybe you should also set the owner, group and permissions of this
directory in the same time.

    AFAIK, /var/run is created during the initramfs phase. Even if it
wasn't the case, this solution is a hack in a system file, therefore
much more intrusive than the others.
