Problem running "normalize-mp3 --tmpdir /tmp ...".



(This refers to the normalize-mp3 command provided by package
normalize-audio, version 0.7.6-7.)


As I think is normal, /tmp has permissions "rwxrwxrwt", which is supposed to
let me rename and unlink files that I own within in.  But normalize-mp3 has
problems using it:

$ normalize-mp3 --tmpdir /tmp/ -a -19dB foo.mp3 bar.mp3
Decoding foo.mp3...
Running normalize...
Re-encoding foo.mp3...
Can't rename temp file, leaving in /tmp/normalize-mp3-27670.tag, stopped at
/usr/bin/normalize-mp3 line 219.

$ mkdir /tmp/foo

$ normalize-mp3 --tmpdir /tmp/foo/ -a -19dB foo.mp3 bar.mp3
Can't read foo.mp3: No such file or directory, stopped at
/usr/bin/normalize-mp3 line 131.

(I've filed a bug report because normalize-mp3 had already deleted foo.mp3
before the first error.)

Shouldn't a program I'm running be able to rename a file it creates in /tmp?
Is this a bug in the package?
