Hi,
Being hit by a bug caused by wrong permissions in a directory in /tmp, I wondered why /tmp is not cleaned on boot (which is obviously not the right fix for the bug I'm seeing, I agree).
I see that it's possible to configure this in /etc/sysconfig/cron: CLEAR_TMP_DIRS_AT_BOOTUP="no"
Does anyone know the rationale for this being disabled by default?
Its difficult to get secure deletion, and also some people like their data to stay there over reboots.
Nod. Makes sense, I guess.
Also, I wonder why the /tmp/pulse-vuntz/ was created by root:root, perhaps after a "su" or "sudo".
Yeah, it's not clear to me why this is happening. I don't use sudo on this computer, and looking at the bash history of root doesn't show anything obvious. As far as I can tell, yast2 is the only graphical application run as root. Probably an application launched via a launcher, but I fail to see which...
And why pulseaudio did not handle this bug like all other /tmp/GNOMEAPP-USER users, which do this just fine already.
Agree :-) Thanks, Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
