I noticed that an upload which appears to fix this issue (although without reference the bug number) has appeared in p-u-NEW. Whilst that's an admirable turn-around :-) it really should have been discussed with the SRMs first, rather than simply uploading (I believe this is well documented enough by now - if not, please point out where and how we could make it clearer). Looking at the diff, and the equivalent code in the unstable package, there seems to be a missing component - namely, that the directory created via mkdtemp() is never cleaned up. Am I missing something, or does fixing this issue result in orphaned temporary directories?
