Fwd: Re: Bug#876441: debian-reference: Command "make distclean" in the source package removes users' tempdir

[atzlinux <atzlinux@sina.com>]

Debian 参考手册修复了一个 bug。

在系统环境变量 TMPDIR 有设置的时候，make distclean 会把这个环境变量对应的整个目录删除。 而操作系统上经常有设置 $TMPDIR， 其它软件也比较常用到这个环境变量， 其对应的目录里面很有可能存其它软件使用的内容。

这个 bug 是由文档的意大利翻译者发现并报告的，我协助定位了问题。Osamu 已经 git push 了补丁解决。

即将文档编译用的临时目录，使用单独的环境变量 $TMP_DIR_DR ，而不使用大家常用的 $TMPDIR。

-ifndef TMPDIR
-TMPDIR := $(CURDIR)/tmp
+# TMP_DIR_DR is not mean to be set to generic TMPDIR like /tmp ~/.tmp
+ifndef TMP_DIR_DR
+TMP_DIR_DR     := $(CURDIR)/tmp
 endif

大家如果发现 Debian 参考手册有任何问题，也欢迎报告 bug 反馈哈！

I see.  In my case, it is unset and let Makefile set it to $(CURDIR)/tmp

I see this is safer.

Good.  Why not commit?
