Description Henrique Martins 2012-04-24 14:42:44 UTC
Description of problem:
Starting recently my /tmp is full of files named systemd-namespace-XXXXXX that don't go away.  They all seem to be owned by root/mysql thus I'm not sure which component is at fault.  On some of my systems I only run mysql to store amarok's database.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
systemd-37-17.fc16.x86_64

How reproducible:
Files show up and remain after reboot

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Normal use, just boot/reboot the system a couple of times, it needs to have the mysqld service enabled
   
Actual results:
Several systemd-namespace-XXXXXX files remain in /tmp/ after reboot, need manual cleanup.

Expected results:
A cleaner /tmp

A part of the problem is bug 810257 that prevents the expected cleanup after 10 days. But even after we fix that bug, we should add active removal of the namespace directories after stopping services.
