--- Comment #3 from theis at gmx.at ---
Yes, that's right, he was referring to cleanvar. And I didn't try to understand
what cleanvar will do in detail ...

But the problem remains that pkg_plist has to add a dummy file (.keep_me) so
that the installation creates the directory, but cleanvar would remove that
file which will cause an error in pkg check -Ba.

And I just found a comment from him, stating that cleanvar removes files and
empty directories from /var/run. So the first call would remove .keep_me,
leaving behind an empty directory, a second call would remove the directory if
it were not populated by fail2ban in the meantime.
