I am running Stable, Testing and Unstable and in no version I have
this problem. But I have encountered that some x-window-terminals
doing bizzar things (XTerm inlusive)...
Since XTerm erase my ${TMPDIR} I have to use a secial login version...
Maybe this "feature" hit on some systems aptitude too...
Thanks, Greetings and nice Day
