Edit /etc/default/rcS, set RAMTMP=no, reboot. Or, set TMPDIR to point to
something like $HOME/tmp

You may also consider filing a bug, since the more people report
problems with Debian's new, absurdly small /tmp, the more likely it
is to get fixed.

Why?

You can always configure as you wish. Take a look at:

/etc/default/tmpfs

There you can configure TMPFS_SIZE and TMP_SIZE, which are the ones
asked for. And if you definitely don't want to use tmpfs, then you
can RAMTMP=yes as you suggested.

I think this is a matter of configuration, and we all might want
different settings for our purposes, :-)

Thanks,
