Re: Mailcap, tmpfiles and master processes such as browsers

The problem is that the caller cannot know when it can remove the
tmpfile. Ususally you remove the temp file, when the process you started
terminates. This fails and the tempfile gets removed too soon, when the
launched process just "triggers" another process and then terminates.
