Ah okay. The core dumps have ACLs, I guess only the user that produced it can read it. I'd still like to understand the reasoning for making this the default. It seems utterly superfluous. Why do user coredumps have to be handled by systemd and stored under /var/lib/systemd/coredump ?
You apparently never had to hunt for core dump of some obscure program crashing without knowing which directory this program happened to be at the time of crash.
Actually, that is exactly why I started this thread. I.e. hunting for a core dump that was whisked away to some obscure directory. I see the point for system apps, but I really think systemd ought to let _me_ decide where _my_ core dumps go.
Having coredumps is one central place is much more convenient. It is also not something new; e.g. Ubuntu was feeding coredumps to apport long before systemd.
