Armin Rigo <[email protected]> added the comment: Sorry, I'm fine with the hash idea. Please do it. I was already looking for a general solution that would fix all the places that write stuff in /tmp, instead of fixing "only" the most obvious place, but that may not be very useful after all.
PYPY_USESSION_DIR is not a configuration option (as pypy/doc/config/index.rst documents), it is an environment variable. (And this particular variable only controls where /tmp/usession-NUM is created, which is only one directory among the large number created in /tmp in a test run.) I don't really think they are essential either; they are just hacks to change various directories. Again, if someone like a Linux distribution wants to ensure that things stay in a controlled environment, they would be better served by chroot for example. ________________________________________ PyPy bug tracker <[email protected]> <https://bugs.pypy.org/issue1723> ________________________________________ _______________________________________________ pypy-issue mailing list [email protected] https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-issue
