Don't some programs use /tmp to store in-progress downloads, and thus
would have problems if /tmp weren't big enough? Say, for example, I was
downloading a 600MB ISO image. Wouldn't /tmp have to be at least that
big for the download to succeed? I remember having problems with this on
a Red Hat 6.2 system where /tmp was only 100 MB. I suppose one could
avoid this by setting TMPDIR or whatever environment variable where the
downloader expects to find a temporary pathname.
