PGDG packaged RepMgr v5.2.1 does not create necessary directories

Hi,

When I install RepMgr v5.2.1 for PostgreSQL v13.1 on CentOS v7.9.2009
using the PGDG repo, the following /run/repmgr and /var/run/repmgr
directories are missing, which prevents RepMgr from starting:

[root@localhost ~]# yum install -y
https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/reporpms/EL-7-x86_64/pgdg-redhat-repo-latest.noarch.rpm

                                 postgresql13-libs.x86_64
0:13.1-3PGDG.rhel7

Complete!

[root@localhost ~]# ls -ald /run/repmgr /var/run/repmgr
ls: cannot access /run/repmgr: No such file or directory

If I install the 2ndQuadrant repo, then it works fine:

[root@localhost ~]# curl

Unless I'm barking up the wrong tree and have made a rookie error,
could you please update the PGDG YUM package to include these two
directories with the correct ownership and permissions?

Thanks.
Greg.
