Package: approx Version: 4.4-1 Severity: normal approx-update creates a new Packages.gz in /tmp and then executes Sys.rename to rename the file. However, the rename fails if /var/cache/approx and /tmp are not under the same mount point.
It would have been possible to work around this problem if approx honored TMPDIR, but this is no longer possible, as per bug #573593. I recommend that approx-update be patched to create temporary files in the destination directory. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (400, 'stable'), (10, 'experimental'), (10, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.35 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages approx depends on: ii adduser 3.112 add and remove users and groups ii bzip2 1.0.5-4 high-quality block-sorting file co ii curl 7.21.0-1 Get a file from an HTTP, HTTPS or ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.33 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.11.2-2 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libpcre3 7.8-3 Perl 5 Compatible Regular Expressi ii openbsd-inetd [inet-superse 0.20080125-4 The OpenBSD Internet Superserver ii update-inetd 4.36 inetd configuration file updater approx recommends no packages.
