Bug#447328: locales-all: aborted installation fills /tmp/ with leftover files



Package: locales-all
Version: 2.6.1-6
Severity: minor

Hi,

When the postinst "configure" of locales-all gets aborted, the statement

 rm -rf "$tmpdir"

is possibly not executed, possibly leading to lots of leftover files in
directories like /tmp/locales.wEeTm23469/ll_LL/.  Please trap signals in
the locales-all postinst script, and execute the statement upon
receiving these.

Thanks, Bye,

Joost
