systemd-tmpfiles-clean will watch directories and periodically purge old contents. eg d /var/cache/man 0755 man man 1w will delete files older than a week from /var/cache/man Is there a way to apply max lifetimes to files matching a pattern? I can't find any way to tell it to, say, remove *.txt files older than a month from /tmp/foo. -- Frank Van Damme Make everything as simple as possible, but not simpler. - Albert Einstein

If you're willing to turn away from systemd, find(1) can do this.
find /tmp/foo -type f -iname '*.txt' -mtime +31 -delete
