Actually, /var/tmp needs not be cleaned at boot to be on the safe side: grep /var/tmp /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/* /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/portage-ccache.conf:x /var/tmp/ccache /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/systemd-tmp.conf:x /var/tmp/systemd-private-%b-* /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/systemd-tmp.conf:X /var/tmp/systemd-private-%b-*/tmp /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/systemd-tmp.conf:R! /var/tmp/systemd-private-* /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/tmp.conf:q /var/tmp 1777 root root 30d The q entry is irrelevant for the intended usage of opentmpfiles, and the others cannot be exploited.
