It was an easy way to make approx-gc etc. work when libpam-tmpdir is in use. (In that case, root has TMP = /tmp/user/0 or some such, and when approx-gc drops privileges to user approx it can no longer write any temp files.) I think I can use some more elaborate logic for temp file creation to work in both your case and that one. -- Eric Cooper e c c @ c m u . e d u -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
