Package: konsole Version: 4:4.8.4-1 Severity: normal Given that all are moving in the direction of having /tmp on tmpfs, should applications be fixed?
>From what I recollect from the last discussion on this topic, it was agreed that /tmp is for temporary files with no guarantee to be available. For this explanation, there is no breakage currently. But the problem lies with most applications that write large amount of temporary data into /tmp/. In this case, konsole is logging 6 MiB of log file to /tmp. I think this is because I have enabled "Unlimited Scrolling" in konsole's preferenes. Should this data (and similar candidates from other applications) go into /var/tmp/ ? rrs@champaran:/var/cache/pbuilder$ ls /tmp/kde-rrs/ -lh total 6.3M -rw------- 1 rrs rrs 417 Oct 13 13:26 konsolebg3974.tmp -rw------- 1 rrs rrs 28K Oct 13 13:25 konsoleDp3974.tmp -rw------- 1 rrs rrs 6.8K Oct 13 13:25 konsoleMQ3974.tmp -rw------- 1 rrs rrs 1.7K Oct 13 13:26 konsoleNk3974.tmp -rw------- 1 rrs rrs 6.0M Oct 13 13:25 konsoleOT3974.tmp -rw------- 1 rrs rrs 216K Oct 13 13:26 konsoleSh3974.tmp -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (100, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.5-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages konsole depends on: ii kde-runtime 4:4.8.4-1 ii libc6 2.13-35 ii libkdecore5 4:4.8.4-3 ii libkdeui5 4:4.8.4-3 ii libkio5 4:4.8.4-3 ii libknotifyconfig4 4:4.8.4-3 ii libkonq5abi1 4:4.8.4-1 ii libkparts4 4:4.8.4-3 ii libkpty4 4:4.8.4-3 ii libqt4-dbus 4:4.8.2+dfsg-2 ii libqtcore4 4:4.8.2+dfsg-2 ii libqtgui4 4:4.8.2+dfsg-2 ii libstdc++6 4.7.2-4 ii libx11-6 2:1.5.0-1 konsole recommends no packages. konsole suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-qt-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
