Package: systemd
Version: 247.3-6
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 10.7
Dear Maintainer,
/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/x11.conf should be a configuration file. Entries in it must be disabled in order to run containers with accelerated X11 and DRI access.
As it is under lib, changes to it are overwritten on every systemd update breaking all containers which run X apps with direct access to local X-server.
1. There is no way to disable it permanently.
2. There is no way to override it in a way which disables the defaults
Actually, most of that directory does not belong in /usr - it should be under /etc as per Debian policy for configuration files and should be handled as config on
system upgrades and updates.
