Hi,

I've prepared a patch for the git repository on alioth, please review 
it. The patch should cover all places where tmpfs(5) is mentioned, 
except debian/changelog.

The package builds in a sid chroot without problems.

If everybody thinks that this change is acceptable, it would be great to 
get it into Stretch ...

Regards,
Tobias
