Bug#919287: FATAL: systemd-tmpfiles fails - Detected unsafe path transition

Package: systemd
Version: 240-2

4.19.0-1 buster/sid

Since upgrading systemd to version 240-2, systemd-tmpfiles fails with error
message:-

Detected unsafe path transition

for every conf file in /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d.

Consequently, /tmp/.x11-unix is one of the paths NOT created which causes
gnome-shell to fail, filling up all the logfiles. See bug#918574.

Result:- my laptop is useless.

An urgent fix is requested.
