I think this is totally tangential to the issue. If the effect of moving to tmpfs is - practically - reducing the size of /tmp, then it is bringing into range these size issues that may have not been hit by as many people before. Yes the issues existed already, but how seriously we should treat the issue should be a product of many factors, including the likelyhood of the problem being hit. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
