Package: pstotext
Version: 1.9-4
Severity: minor

Using 'pstotext foo.pdf | less' and exiting before reading the
whole file results in /tmp being littered with ps2... files.

Normally, when run on a PDF file pstotext keeps the intermediate
postscript file in /tmp and removes it before exiting with the
cleanup() function.  When exiting due to SIGINT or SIGTERM, it
similarly cleans up in a signal handler.

But there is no handler for SIGPIPE along the same lines.

With other signals like SEGV and FPE, on the other hand, I am
less concerned, and it might even be best to keep the temporary file
for debugging purposes.

Thanks for maintaining pstotext and keeping it pleasant to use.
Jonathan
