/var/lib/systemd/coredump filling up quickly

Hi,

I have a three day-old Arch install that I was very surprised to see that my 8GB /var partition was full. I used ncdu to figure out that /var/lib/systemd/coredump was filling up with hundreds of files just like this:

core.kscreenlocker_g.1001.795a8ab362b243999b4e82f2c2daa99c.925.1424560692000000.lz4

Has anyone encountered this? Is this a bug with the new plasma?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
D

Re: /var/lib/systemd/coredump filling up quickly

For now configure coredumps to take up less space and remove the old ones.
You might have to reboot.
