package: systemd version: 257.8-1~deb13u1 severity: wishlist Thanks for maintaining systemd.
Every day systemd in trixie tells me that /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/legacy.conf and /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/debian.conf have a duplicate line relating to /run/lock can you improve the documentation to explain why this is needed --- it's very confusing at the moment. currently, legacy.conf says '# See tmpfiles.d(5) for details.' but that man-page has no details about these files, i suppose that is boiler-plate it also says # The functionality provided by these files and directories has been replaced # by newer interfaces. Their use is discouraged on legacy-free systems. This # configuration is provided to maintain backward compatibility. but this seems incorrect given the permission is set differently in the two files -- this seems to be changing backwards compatibility? how do i make my system "legacy-free"? should i delete or override one of these files (which one? how? why is one of them not in /etc to help that?) i think you will get fewer bug reports if you help people understand what is going on in their systems -- im sure there is a good reason for all of this, but i don't think many people will understand what that reason is from the information available. (I also suggest this be explained in the NEWS.Debian and trixie release-notes) happy to help with drafting of text if you could give a hint as to what this is trying to do
