no more tmp.mount systemd unit on my Debian Sid GNOME !

[antistress]

Hi,

About 2 weeks ago I couldn't start anymore my graphical Debian Sid GNOME
session. I don't know if it was related to the switch to non-root X
server. Some people on debian-fr forum helped me to get a graphical
session again.

But It seems that I have lost the ability mount tmp on a tmpfs by
running the command # systemctl enable tmp.mount (got "Failed to execute
operation: No such file or directory")

actually, I've checked and there is no tmp.mount in
/etc/systemd/system/local-fs.target.wants/ !

However Systemd (version 228-2) is running :

# ps -eaf | grep [s]ystemd
root 202 1 0 10:29 ? 00:00:00
/lib/systemd/systemd-journald
root 221 1 0 10:29 ? 00:00:00 /lib/systemd/systemd-udevd

my_username 1163 1 0 10:29 ? 00:00:00
/lib/systemd/systemd --user

Maybe someone can help me to solve this ?

Thanks in advance,

systemd (220-6) unstable; urgency=medium

* Stop installing tmp.mount by default; there are still situations where it
becomes active through dependencies from other units, which is surprising,
hides existing data in /tmp during runtime, and it isn't safe to have a
tmpfs /tmp on every install scenario. (Closes: #783509)
- d/rules: Ship tmp.mount in /usr/share/systemd/ instead of
/lib/systemd/systemd.
- systemd.postinst: When tmp.mount already was enabled, install tmp.mount
into /etc and keep it enabled.
- systemd.postinst: When enabling tmp.mount because of RAMTMP=yes, copy it
from /usr/share.
- Drop Don-t-mount-tmp-as-tmpfs-by-default.patch and
PrivateTmp-shouldn-t-require-tmpfs.patch, not necessary any more.
