So if you do *nothing* then everything works as expected, but things
break when you misunderstand the NEWS entry and apply a change that you
shouldn't apply? Then there's no bug, it's just a misunderstanding,
closing

Bug#1072290: I should add that the bug is due to bogus listchange wording

2024-05-31 Thread Eric Valette

The way I read the message below is as this:

/tmp will unconditionnaly mounted as a tmpfs file system (which I do not 
want). Uncondionnally does not mean "even if /tmp is explictly mounted 
in /etc/fstab".


So this encourage user to do the command mentionned below. The previous 
setup is rather unclear.


I tried to let the /tmp entry in /etc/fstab and do not do the mask 
command and then it boot but


"/tmp is not by default a tmpfs" or by default should read unless 
otherwyse explicitly mounted via entry in /etc/fstab.




  - found in list-change 
systemd (256~rc3-3) unstable; urgency=medium

  - /tmp/ is now by default a tmpfs, via the tmp.mount unit provided
upstream.
The previous setup can be retained simply by masking the unit
locally with:

systemctl mask tmp.mount

or:

touch /etc/systemd/system/tmp.mount
