Hi,
tmpreaper will clean up PrivateTmp dirs of processes that systemd
started, leading to those services periodically crashing (and it's
usually hard to diagnose that tmpreaper was the culprit here).
This update adds those dirs to tmpreapers' whitelist.
The problem has existed for a longer time but seems aggravated since
buster, likely because more services have started to use PrivateTmp.
Kind regards,
Thijs
