Dave, this was introduces by you, with comment: "- fix --localstatedir for uuidd"
https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/commit/trunk?h=packages/util-linux&id=dd25addee45c4261d424a31d9aeb184bca109d89

Can we change this or does it break anything else?

Build system hints at --runstatedir existing since 2.31, but that doesn't actually seem to be the case... Sadly, dropping --localstatedir entirely results in:

ListenStream=/usr/var/run/uuidd/request

Yes, sadly the only way I could get it work reasonably is to pass --localstatedir (same as Fedora does it ATM).

Ok, --localstatedir=/var seems to do what we want. We'll have to wait for autoconf 2.70 to use --runstatedir.
