[systemd-devel] flood: systemd-tmpfiles-clean.timer: time change

[Reindl Harald]

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=925916

why is systemd flooding the log at boot on VMware guests as
you can see at bottom of my message while the PrivateTmp
folders under /tmp are never get removed and so what is
it supposed to clean at all?

after boot the system-time is definitly stable

[root at buildserver64:~]$ cat messages | grep "recalculating next elapse" | wc -l
11182

[root at buildserver64:~]$ rpm -q systemd
systemd-197-1.fc18.2.x86_64

[root at buildserver64:~]$ ls /tmp/ | grep systemd-private | wc -l
84

[root at buildserver64:~]$ ls /tmp/ | grep systemd-private | grep vnstat
