This affects us as well.

The issue is caused by this patch (AFAICT):
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/atop.git/tree/debian/patches/var-run?h=wheezy
or
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/atop.git/tree/debian/patches/var-run?h=master
respectively (look for ACCTDIR).

Note that I doubt the original decision to put the accounting file in
/tmp as well (ran out of /tmp-space a few times in the past on very busy
servers), but a RAM-disk is certainly a bad place to keep it!

Why not make it /var/tmp, which usually has plenty of space and is
reviewed by admins on a regular base anyway?
