Bug#568799: texlive-binaries: tcfmgr doesn't create temporary files as Debian likes it
Package: texlive-binaries
Version: 2009-5
Severity: normal
setupTemp()
{
case $setupTempOK in
"") : ;;
*) (exit 0); return 0;;
esac
case $TFC_TEMP in
"") TFC_TEMP=${TEMPDIR-/tmp};;
esac
and later
setupTemp
: ${TFC_ID=tfc$$}
for d in "$TFC_TEMP/$TFC_ID" "$TFC_TEMP/$TFC_ID/in" "$TFC_TEMP/$TFC_ID/out"; do
(umask 077; mkdir "$d") || abort "could not create directory \`$d'"
done
This is predictable and possibly leads to security problems.
Regards, Frank
