Thank you for looking into this.

In fact, cleanup on boot would be fine. However, "cleanup" should only cleanup files
older than the age argument.
I tried these:
- Empty /etc/tmpfiles.d/tmp.conf :
As expected, nothing is cleaned up.
- "D /tmp/ 1777 root root 30d"
Everything is deleted at boot, or when running "systemd-tmpfiles --create
--remove --clean"
Also with "~30d" instead of "30d".
- "d /tmp/ 1777 root root 30d"
Nothing is deleted at boot or when running "systemd-tmpfiles --create --remove
--clean" without a reboot.
# grep ' /tmp' /etc/tmpfiles.d/tmp.conf
d /tmp 1777 root root 30d
x /tmp/systemd-private-%b-*
X /tmp/systemd-private-%b-*/tmp
# reboot
...
# ls -Al /tmp/
total 36
...

-rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 9 Jan 1 2016 TOOOLD.txt
...
So the age argument seems to always be ignored?
And I find no way to get the old (before systemd) behaviour: cleanup /tmp at boot,
but preserve "recent" files
If this is the expected behaviour, then either the documentation is quite unclear and
misleading, or I'm too dumb to understand it (which is actually quite possible...)
