Title: systemd /tmp cleaning removes files that it shouldn't Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: New Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: On Ubuntu 24.04.1, systemd 255.4-1ubuntu8.4, the fix for bug #2019026 causes files under /tmp to be removed if their age is greater than 30 days. However, there are files under /tmp that should not be removed at runtime regardless of their age (whether they belong in that directory at all is a separate question), for example those listed in /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/x11.conf (I have witnessed the disappearance of X11 lock files, though the sockets are still there; /tmp/.XIM-unix and /tmp/.font-unix have also disappeared). I am not familiar enough with systemd-tmpfiles to figure out whether those files can be properly protected from removal with a tmpfiles.d configuration change, but I do know that the current configuration does not do that. I noticed this problem when a couple of TigerVNC sessions became inaccessible a month after starting them, which turned out to be because the "cached" password file in /tmp/tigervnc.XXXXXX/passwd was removed. This is at least partially a bug in tigervnc, but the problem also affects other critical not-to-be-removed-or-else files under /tmp.
