> What if you just do s/tempfile/mktemp? I am on the same boat, running sid on desktop. Upgraded stuff, couldn't login. I didn't change the files, but instead made symlink /usr/local/bin/tempfile -> /usr/bin/mktemp and I can login now. Best regards, depesz

Please coordinate a proper transition with all users of tempfile before removing it. Once that is finished in release $x, tempfile can be removed in release $x+1. Given the current state, that's not before we start development of trixie. Cheers > > Regards. > \_o< > > -- > Marc Dequènes -- Sebastian Ramacher signature.asc Description: PGP signature
