Is there a way to allow changing permissions of an rpm tmpfile dir?

[Orion Poplawski]

The clamd package ships a default service (clamd@scan) with the following configuration:

/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/clamd.scan.conf:
d /run/clamd.scan 0710 clamscan virusgroup

%files -n clamd
%ghost %dir %attr(0710,clamscan,virusgroup) /run/clamd.scan
%ghost /run/clamd.scan/clamd.sock





Thanks,
  Orion

Now, a user might want to change the mode and group of the /run/clamd.scan directory to suit their purposes. They can do this by creating an /etc/tmpfiles.d/clamd.scan.conf file. But the next time a clamd update comes along rpm will reset the permissions of /run/clamd.scan until the next reboot. Any suggestions for how to avoid this? Can the /run/clamd.scan directory be marked %config(noreplace) or some such so that rpm will not modify the existing permissions? Could systemd-tmpfiles be run in such a way as to honor any user overrides in place?
