Patch

If systemd is configured with --prefix=/ it won't find its own tmpfiles configuration files, because they will be installed in /lib/tmpfiles.d but systemd-tmpfiles does not look there.

I noticed a similar problem with systemd-binfmt also (although I don't use it). The attached patch fixes both.

Patch which uses configured prefix

It was suggested to me that a better solution would be to obey the prefix from autoconf. Here's a new patch to do that.

Honestly, I think installing systemd with the prefix of / is a really bad idea.

But anyway, fixed this now to be symmetric to the other tools.
