I decided to put the files in /root/ (like it was in the quake2 package). The main reason for this is that the downloads are considerable and I can assume that users don't want to discard them as easily as a temp file (2x around 40 MB). AFAIK, this is also the strategy of realplayeri (when I still used it). Maybe there is a better location for such files. -- greetz, marc Human.
