Category: None Group: None >Status: Closed >Resolution: Rejected Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Daniel Yek (danieyek) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: cscope should use /var/tmp, instead of /tmp Initial Comment: Fedora 18 Beta was mounting tmpfs on /tmp to, hopefully, reduce disk I/O and extend the life of SSD disks. Since tmpfs was very limited in size, cscope ran out of space while indexing larger source tree. I had to use: TMPDIR=/var/tmp cscope -b -q -k to enable cscope to complete its indexing. I think cscope should consider storing temp files in /var/tmp.

For starters, /tmp has been the official place for such files since the dawn of time. If distributors decide to break that now, that's their fault, not cscope's. Second, there already is a simple, effective and documented way to get around this: cscope respects $TMPDIR.
