I just saw that systemd creates (and does not purge) lots of directories like

Nothing serious, they are small - but nevertheless ... Is this normal,
shouldnt there be some automatic purging mechanism?

Maybe we should default to /tmp being on tmpfs so that
this gets purged on every reboot? This would also be more
in accordance with FHS imho.
This is one of my goals for mga3 (I have it in my notes for the
technical specs discussion that will come), but certainly not for mga2
as this is quite a big change and some apps may have to be patched to
use /var/tmp instead etc. if they store large things in there.
As long as it's still optional. With only 2GB of ram, I prefer to
keep /tmp on disk, since I use it for things like dvd creation etc.
