Move /tmp to sda rather than tmpfs

My /tmp is mounted as tmpf, so uses RAM.

[joe@eee ~]$ df -h
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1       293G  6.7G  271G   3% /
dev             496M     0  496M   0% /dev
run             498M  660K  497M   1% /run
tmpfs           498M  160K  497M   1% /dev/shm
tmpfs           498M     0  498M   0% /sys/fs/cgroup
tmpfs           498M   44K  497M   1% /tmp

But, my /etc/fstab doesn't reflect this.

# /dev/sda1
UUID=506fe1de-f3f8-492b-b5f5-941d029c87d3       /               ext4            rw,relatime,data=ordered        0 1

# /dev/sda2
UUID=68af78b6-cf71-48aa-b62a-21e26a33292b       none            swap            defaults        0 0

My main problem is that pacaur uses /tmp and 500MB isn't enough. So another solution is to get pacaur to compile in /var/tmp instead (if you can).

You can set build dir in config https://github.com/Spyhawk/pacaur/blob/master/config

Hacky solution: $ systemctl mask tmp.mount (not tested by me, but should work);
Proper solution: as karol suggested.

Not an installation issue, moving to System Administration.
