Package: systemd
Version: 215-17
Severity: normal

Hello,

I am not sure for how long but I guess less than two months (jessie),
systemd has started purging my /tmp on every reboot, although I have
these settings:

/etc/default/rcS:
TMPTIME=2

which seems to have been migrated to /etc/tmpfiles.d/tmp.conf
(attached, I have made a manual change from 5d to 2d iirc).

I am a litle bit at loss what goes wrong here, any idea on how to
debug this?

thanks cu Andreas
