Apparently, 12.1 has added /var/tmp/ to TMP_DIRS_TO_CLEAR in /etc/sysconfig/cron. I was quite surprised when I found out today that I've lost a few GB of data, which used to be safe there.

systemd is also cron replacement?
Not, yet, but hopefully something is done about it.
That tells systemd to clear files older than 10 resp 30 days in those directories. systemd does not honor TMP_DIRS_TO_CLEAR.
If this is really the default now then it should have been a major point on ReleaseNotes.
really ? since when it is a major point that the system actually deletes temporary files as it should ? The good thing is that systemd allows to use a private,unshared /tmp namespace that daemons can use so this whole story can finally be put to an end. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
