Package: gnome-keyring Version: 2.30.3-5 Severity: normal gnome-keyring creates a temporary directory for its control socket in /tmp. This temporary directory often doesn't get properly cleaned up, resulting in the accumulation of directories in /tmp. (Right now I have a pile of /tmp/keyring-* directories accumulated just in the past month since I last removed all of them. Other systems I've used have many screenfuls of these directories.)
This directory seems like a perfect fit for /var/run. Moving the directory there should not affect any existing applications, since they all reference it via $GNOME_KEYRING_CONTROL. Furthermore, this would ensure that they get cleaned up at boot time, at a minimum (or automatically disappear when using a tmpfs for /var/run). - Josh Triplett -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.38-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gnome-keyring depends on: ii dbus-x11 1.4.6-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii gconf2 2.28.1-6 GNOME configuration database syste ii libc6 2.11.2-13 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libdbus-1-3 1.4.6-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libgcr0 2.30.3-5 Library for Crypto UI related task ii libgcrypt11 1.4.6-5 LGPL Crypto library - runtime libr ii libglib2.0-0 2.28.4-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgp11-0 2.30.3-5 Glib wrapper library for PKCS#11 - ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.3-1~sid1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libtasn1-3 2.9-2 Manage ASN.1 structures (runtime) Versions of packages gnome-keyring recommends: ii libpam-gnome-keyring 2.30.3-5 PAM module to unlock the GNOME key gnome-keyring suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
