That might need further explanation.

Depending on the operating system, you should put the socket into /tmp
or /var/run/postgresql, because that's where a PostgreSQL client would
expect it.  The client isn't supposed to know that it's connecting to
pgbouncer instead.  So /var/run/pgbouncer is in any case not a
designated place for a Unix-domain socket.
