I can confirm this behaviour on Kubuntu 9.10 amd64 release . I have TMPTIME=0 in /etc/default/rcS. But df gives this after reboot:
# df -h Dateisystem Größe Benut Verf Ben% Eingehängt auf /dev/sda3 46G 6,5G 38G 15% / /dev/sda1 92G 68G 20G 78% /tmp /dev/sda4 543G 113G 403G 22% /home 68G in /tmp! In my case /tmp is mounted as seperate file system and not pat of the root file system. /dev/sda1 is a spare partition for testing new Ubuntu installations or distribution upgrades. Since there is nothing to be tested at the moment I thought why not using it as /tmp for my production instalation. Now, when I don't mount /dev/sda1 on /tmp, i.e. /tmp is part of the root file systen everythink works fine and /tmp is cleaned up after reboot. It would be interesting to hear about your stetup. I suspect it is a bug in mountall which is actually performing the cleaning job during bootup. -- TMPTIME=0 no longer clears /tmp on boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/524196 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
