Bug#273596: rubitex script uses hardcoded path for tempfiles

[Frank Küster <frank@debian.org>]

Dear Werner, dear Vladimir,

Thomas Esser and we, the Debian teTeX package maintainers, have found
that your rubibtex script (part of the t2 package) uses a hardcoded path
for temporary files:

#!/bin/sh

TEMP=/tmp

Sometimes it is necessary that local administrators or users set up a
different directory for temporary files. This is usually done by setting
the variable TMPDIR to the location where the files should be put, but
this is made impossible with rubibtex. 

It would be great if you could change this. A simple, portable solution
would be to use parameter substitution to assign a default value, as
e.g. in teTeX's texconfig script:

TEMP=${TMPDIR-/tmp}

If you answer, please keep the bug number in the Cc.

Thanks in advance, Frank
