One standard way to deal with this kind of thing is to open the file - then immediately unlink the file. The file handle can continue to be used to read / write the file.
The file is removed from the directory list (so is no longer visible). It is removed completely when the file handle is closed - or when app stops running (which closes all open file handles). May mean passing file handle around instead of filename but that's a trivial and automatable change. Maybe you guys can do something similar? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1853007 Title: nsemail and nscopy files left in /tmp To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunderbird/+bug/1853007/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
