Severity: normal

Hi!

While interdiffing (interdiff -z file1 file2) two files [1] [2], I am
receiving this message:

(...)
patch: **** Can't rename file /tmp/poMxedqS to /tmp/interdiff-1.rJqkWs : No 
such file or directory
interdiff: Error applying patch1 to reconstructed file

[1] http://people.debian.org/~naoliv/misc/interdiff/libprojectm_1.01-3.diff.gz
[2] http://people.debian.org/~naoliv/misc/interdiff/libprojectm_1.01-4.diff.gz

The first time it runs normally, but on the second (or third) run, it
gives the above message (or says about patch2, instead patch1).

At /tmp I can see some empty files from interdiff, after it fails:

interdiff-1.JywgHd and interdiff-2.8Y35mo, for example

More temp files are created when running interdiff. Some files have some
content.

Removing all the /tmp/interdiff* files seems to temporarily "fix" the problem,
but after some runs of interdiff, the problem appears again.

A strace is available here:
http://people.debian.org/~naoliv/misc/interdiff/strace

Is there something that I can do to debug this, please?

Thank you very much!

Best regards,
Nelson
