[Bug 1870585] Re: Not cleaning /var/tmp by default

[Nick Rosbrook]

Debian is going back to upstream behavior for this, and we will follow
(except for extending the clean up age for /tmp to 30d). This will be in
the next oracular upload, but we won't backport.

Title:
  Not cleaning /var/tmp by default

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in systemd package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  1) 20.04
  2) 245.2-1ubuntu2
  3) I expect /var/tmp to be cleaned up in some way.
  4) It's commented out per https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=773313

  In sosreport was comparing the difference between /tmp (Ubuntu/Debian)
  and /var/tmp (RH) and determined that as long as /var/tmp gets cleaned
  on a regular basis we would prefer /var/tmp.

  The  bug that appears to have prompted the disabling was fixed a long
  time ago, can we have this 30d delete re-enabled by default?
