With these files I supposed that a file with more than 10 days in /tmp would be automatically deleted, but today I have found some files/folders with more than 10 days.
What I have done wrong?
The test is on access time, not modification. Have they been read in the last 10 days?
And note that a GUI file manager might attempt to read every file in a directory in order to determine its type and display the correct icon.
I have check my /tmp folder with "find ./ -atime +10d" and there are some folders that appears as "accessed" more than 10 days ago... so I don't understand why automatic deletion system has not deleted them.
Thanks.
Typically directories are not deleted if not empty. Do those folders contain items that were accessed more recently?
