This should be fixed properly with next major release of systemd (ie for openSUSE 13.1) which will cleanup those directories when service using PrivateTmp=yes are closed. Of course, if we were using /tmp over tmpfs, proliferation would be contained but that's another story ;) -- 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.

Anyway, since directories are created whey services using PrivateTmp=yes are activated (in my case, I have two directories in /tmp and two in /var/tmp for each boot) and a shutdown for sure closes services using PrivateTmp=yes, I wonder why such directories (at least those not created today) can not be trashed on boot. -- 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.

Additionally, the directories will stay there if the system doesn't shutdown cleanly (power loss, crash, ...). Would it be feasible to keep those directories that are still needed alive by touching them in regular intervals (e.g. once a day) while the service is still running? This seems cleaner to me than exempting them from cleanup completely... -- 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.

Well, /var/tmp is filling up too, and I doubt upstream has it on tmpfs as well, do they?

They don't, but that's not related to this particular bug (and I don't want to go through the flames around /tmp auto-cleaning, FATE#314974 )...

my bad, /var/tmp is also affected by PrivateTmp (since version 183) -- 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.

They could, except that by default files owned by root are left untouched, and I suppose most users (including me) would be reluctant to change that.

I'm not that sure that root's files stored in /tmp are actually important ;) I'm wondering whether it isn't possible to detect those directories that are still needed and delete the rest via cron. Since 2013-04-08 I acquired 56 of such directories, and the number is growing. -- 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.

On openSUSE 13.1 the temporary systemd directories are gone on both /tmp and /var/tmp

Ok, but it does not seem to remove the old dirs, e.g., from April 2013. -- 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.
