Where did you found this line?
It should be
CacheDir  = /var/cache/pacman/pkg/


This is a convenient place to me as my root system is a not too large
SSD. When doing some cleaning on my machines, I found this:

$ ls -al /drawer/system
.....
lrwxrwxrwx  1 gabx users   34 Aug 12 21:10 pacman ->
/tmp/asd-gabx/drawer/system/pacman/

Pacman is working like a charm, but I would like to understand why abd
by what the pacman directory is a symlink to a volatile dir?

Thank you for any hints on how investigate.

If you have no free space, use
pacman -Sc
to clean the old versions or change it on another partition with enough disk space.
What is abd?
