Ok I dropped the idea of using my current /tmp partition for a tmpfs and
followed your suggestion

If you'd like to use tmpfs now, you can "systemctl enable tmp.mount" and comment out the /tmp item you currently have in fstab. When you reboot, you should have /tmp mounted as tmpfs.

unfortunately this didn't work

   The unit files have no [Install] section. They are not meant to be enabled
   using systemctl.
   Possible reasons for having this kind of units are:
   1) A unit may be statically enabled by being symlinked from another unit's
      .wants/ or .requires/ directory.
   2) A unit's purpose may be to act as a helper for some other unit which has
      a requirement dependency on it.
   3) A unit may be started when needed via activation (socket, path, timer,
      D-Bus, udev, scripted systemctl call, ...).

But I've solved it by manually adding
   tmpfs  /tmp tmpfs rw,seclabel 0 0
to /etc/fstab and commenting the line used to mount the old /tmp
partition.

I still have to rid off of one of these two tmpfs

  tmpfs  1633640  0 1633640 0% /run/user/989
  tmpfs  1633640 20 1633620 1% /run/user/526

I think I have to keep one of them since it is associated to my id (526)
but I can't imagine what the other is for and how to avoid its creation.
Googling didn't help much.

Thanks Walter
