I can confirm that the problem lies in mgetty-fax; the fix for #496403
broke the script:
+ # mkdir a directory in $TMP (or /tmp), convert input to G3 in there
+ #
+-spooldir=${TMP:-/tmp}/$new_seq.$$.`date +%S`
++spooldir=`mktemp -t -d`
+
+ if ( umask 077 ; mkdir $spooldir ) ; then
+ $echo "spooling to $spooldir (->$new_seq)..."
mktemp -t -d actually creates the directory, the subsequent mkdir then
fails.
