Let's wait for renodr's comment.

Quoting first para from https://www.phoronix.com/news/systemd-tmpfiles-purge-drama

For those running the command "systemd-tmpfiles --purge" and think that this command just deletes your temporary files, think again and watch out. In reality it will delete all files and directories created by a tmpfiles.d entry... Including the /home that is created by systemd-tmpfiles' home.conf. With users being bitten in recent days by this behavior when they were just expecting tmp files to be removed, systemd 256.1 is now available and does have a change to avoid inadvertently deleting your all-important home directory.

-- No idea if that affects LFS-systemd

If we only need to resolve this specific issue, we can just rm /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/home.conf as in LFS /home and /srv are created manually in chapter 7.

Replying to Xi Ruoyao:

We could do that, but I think we should still update in case a user misses the instruction after ninja install, which will most likely lead to a really bad email on lfs-support.
