Do you also worry about the X11 cookie? I am not aware of an X11 file here that meets the stated criterion (with "cookie" in its name). I do at the moment have /tmp/serverauth.Jx9TgHJbS8 and don't worry about that. It may as you say be odd, but I still associate "cookie" with clandestine attempts to track my purchases and inundate me with follow-up advertising. This is why, for example, I have ~/.macromedia linked to /dev/null. I gather that ~/.pulse-cookie is something else. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
