Patch for 2.7, with most references to /tmp removed or replaced.
References remain in Doc/install/index.rst and Doc/library/rexec.rst as they
seem to make sense in context.

I think this issue was closed too hastily. Only the logging documentation has
been fixed.
@grubert: I agree with the assumption that /tmp is mostly used because it's
writable. In my opinion, the directory could just be left out and only leave

Assumption:
/tmp is used in examples so the examples work

Vinay Sajip vinay_sa...@yahoo.co.uk added the comment:
Actually, I don't think it's a great idea in general to use temporary files for
logging, though of course there are specific cases where one might do this. So
for the logging examples in the docs (which used '/tmp/XXX') I just removed the

Whatsnew documents are not edited after the corresponding release is done.

Who wants to make a patch to update the documentation?
For command-line examples (like “python setup.py install --install-base /tmp”),
