In fact, they are specifically excluded in /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/tmp.conf This results in an extra folder every time the system is switched on and while it does not take any place, it is annoying when you are looking for something else in /tmp. A clean way should be added to remove the unused folders here. Reproducible: Always =========================================================================== Gerald Pfeifer 2014-01-22 21:51:39 CET (In reply to comment #23)
On 13.1 I see 3 systemd-private-* directories in /tmp and another 3 in /var/tmp, but all of them are from today, so AFAICS they are cleaned up properly when systemd exits. Well /tmp is on tmpfs so I can't be sure for these but /var/tmp is on permanent storage, so I am confident it's fixed.
Unfortunately it's not fixed for /tmp. This is from a new installation of 13.1: drwx------ 3 root root 4096 Dez 23 06:44 systemd-private-3AGju5 drwx------ 3 root root 4096 Dez 15 07:35 systemd-private-3S0vhO drwx------ 3 root root 4096 Jän 9 03:07 systemd-private-7KUKaH drwx------ 3 root root 4096 Jän 12 07:00 systemd-private-9LFYiA drwx------ 3 root root 4096 Dez 15 07:35 systemd-private-AYN0LZ drwx------ 3 root root 4096 Jän 9 03:07 systemd-private-JqGXTg drwx------ 3 root root 4096 Jän 12 07:00 systemd-private-L5MAr8 drwx------ 3 root root 4096 Jän 9 03:02 systemd-private-P4wa2H drwx------ 3 root root 4096 Jän 22 14:41 systemd-private-UB26Xz drwx------ 3 root root 4096 Dez 14 10:07 systemd-private-UOG21G drwx------ 3 root root 4096 Dez 23 06:44 systemd-private-cTZP8Z drwx------ 3 root root 4096 Jän 22 14:41 systemd-private-nURuNG drwx------ 3 root root 4096 Dez 14 02:35 systemd-private-skTNRA drwx------ 3 root root 4096 Dez 14 10:07 systemd-private-sxQ3aF (The system lost power a couple of times, i.e., wasn't shut down cleanly, but that still should be taken care of, right?) ========================================================================== I'd like to confirm it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
