Filesystem Hierarchy Standard V 2.3 says: /var/tmp : Temporary files preserved between system reboots Thus: Or tempdir is needed *between system reboots* or must be left in /tmp You shouldn't speculate on what a system administrator has done. On my system i have more free space on /tmp than /var/tmp for example. Maybe add a note in README file about space needed in /tmp -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
