Using mktemp -d in specfiles' BuildRoot means that quite a
few stray temp dirs will start to appear in %{_tmppath}.
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.
umm, if it is to be so done, passing mktemp a subordinate
'template' directory pattern of
-p %{_tmppath}rpm-build/{...whatever nameing per build instance}
may be helpful in confining this to a known search sub-tree in
%{_tmppath}; I know I go poking in the RPM-BUILD temp dirs on
occasion when builds are being diagnosed, but also like to
clean house confidently when space gets tight.
