Description

See https://www.maxoberberger.net/blog/2017/10/debian-9-private-tmp.html

When the apache daemon has a private /tmp dir (PrivateTmp systemd option), as the remote run is run by apache (which runs python, which runs the agent), the /tmp directory is a private directory (in /tmp/systemd-private-...) and actions over /tmp do not affect system /tmp.

This is very surprising, but it works as configured. I'm not sure we should do something.

very small => decide to either close that ticket and document it, or change the configuration.

Still true in 6.0 as the relayd service may have PrivateTmp=True.

Let's document it!
