There aren't any implications. By *definition*, the contents of /tmp should not be relied on to survive a reboot or even subsequent invocations of the same program. Any app that does rely on the contents of /tmp still being there is thus fundamentally broken in it's behaviour and should be avoided or fixed. -- Alan McKinnon alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com -- [email protected] mailing list
