Gnome libsoup is creating a ton of directories in /tmp on the form grilo-plugin-cache-*/
There's an open issue about it, but it has been open for two years, and the developer does not seem to agree that it needs a solution.
This clutters my /tmp and I would like to have all of those in a dir like /tmp/grilo-plugin-cache/
I also have the same issue with a lot of folders on the form systemd-private-*
This is what it looks like:
➜ /tmp ls
clr-debug-pipe-832-766-in
clr-debug-pipe-832-766-out
CoreFxPipe_Muse.MuseHub.Service.Pipe

I'd like it to look like this:
➜ /tmp ls
clr-debug-pipe-832-766-in
clr-debug-pipe-832-766-out
CoreFxPipe_Muse.MuseHub.Service.Pipe
dotnet-diagnostic-832-766-socket

So I had an idea if this was solvable by somehow hijacking file accesses and redirect them somehow. I'm perfectly aware that this might be a very bad idea. If it is, let me know and explain why. But my end goal is to not have a completely cluttered /tmp directory. I'm open to any suggestion, or even that I should just accept the way it is and not even try to solve it.
I'm using Debian if that makes any difference.
