- /tmp is mounted as tmpfs, to make the default setups as stateless as possible. As stated on https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/tmp-on-tmpfs , we might need to fix some applications to use /var/tmp instead of /tmp when they need persistent storage. Another big issue is educating users.
This will break a ton of boxes. * People won't be able to hibernate because their memory will be full of temp undroppable bloat. * The overall system performance will be *hugely* reduced.

And both are currently on the edge. No, thanks, I really don't want any more swapping. Did they think about this change thoroughly? (And yes, I have /tmp as tmpfs on my 6G-of-RAM machine.) BTW stateless /tmp can be achieved by rm -rf /tmp/* at each boot. regards, - -- js suse labs -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.18 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJPcjWgAAoJEL0lsQQGtHBJ4UoP/3+GAc8xA9yyFbDORaA0z8hp 8JS16e9eG78M9+h0xN7Xyss/sZNm6SU/0R4jyKRqSlDVIt7Vjzsvc2GnwbWWWfrb 1ltY//wP7f4aGO2cRD4cTekIXpg3/NxydJmSD+LPS7J70jYiCEjNsqYA1BwKmbKW z3bvHtCbH6zLs5atVomx8ec6nerUGtBaGor53NNbpCN54qfB91YbcvanN2Ajkrwk JOm5XvGe80uqKu3ovQLLAMERDedGO4weGReMrJZgeGDOLcb5JHIx5Fji+npIZvIN Xh05EI6vJ6tQNRDf4Sz1+25aofuKyNOn6V2cD5SN6ZbwQQlJ37cFserZkkbYPQFg o4cJXO1+hkuQRgNYCsP7Dmg0UA+Mbv2H+y6O1amnnzPYOS4ZxoleYvhM/Q7P4+cM rRh4G5YxMHcckpyDZpBjmAQvXvfm2FzAj6cqcTGxZjWIwXky++2uO+TehNrbWWxE K4647sB5RNgMnlotCmxZpbuD+7P6fQuQq5U7tMxXmqm6FVMz7ZK9T1QhmSBSZjIW cHuO+lMhzmSs82J/gV5K/g5fngpee4VxVpLCrPcK4yZ4HtaOt7QBiimWS8r+8I8G 3nX1thL7p617ntaDZIxCVgEj3uL8a3baUjcTqkkJ0sbNwu53I3I6UiYCRMJ9wxxc /3ES172z1mzVA2n6qWit =3IPP -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
