For example "rpm -q --specfile foo.spec" and "rpmbuild -bs foo.spec" create them, and nothing cleans them up (no, tmpwatch doesn't count) - we probably don't want that. One way to avoid it is mktemp -ud, but it's more racy than plain -d. I think -ud would be a better choice nevertheless. -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
