And I am confused: Why does this not work? I'd expect a temporary file in /dev/file/xattr@/home/stoe/x1//@//, but instead always get one in /tmp: env - /bin/ksh -x -c 'builtin mktemp ; touch x1 ; cd -@ x1 ; TMPDIR="$PWD" ; mktemp "" "$PWD" ; :' + builtin mktemp + touch x1 + cd -@ x1 + TMPDIR=/dev/file/xattr@/home/stoe/x1//@// + mktemp '' /dev/file/xattr@/home/stoe/x1//@// /tmp/8nR0snQsJI.JID + : env - /bin/ksh -x -c 'builtin mktemp ; touch x1 ; cd -@ x1 ; TMPDIR="$PWD" ; mktemp ; :' + builtin mktemp + touch x1 + cd -@ x1 + TMPDIR=/dev/file/xattr@/home/stoe/x1//@// + mktemp /tmp/tmp5Sy9yoF.syY + : Simon _______________________________________________ ast-developers mailing list ast-developers@lists.research.att.com http://lists.research.att.com/mailman/listinfo/ast-developers
