Hi list!

Due to disk space restrictions I've decided to make /tmp a symlink
to /var/tmp instead of reserving space for both. Maybe it would have
been wiser to make /tmp a symlink to a dedicated directory in /var/tmp
but now it's too late.

Anyway, now I've found /var/tmp crowded with thousands of files with six
letters long nonsensical names like "6mtgWC" or "bOaiA0" each 4.9 kB
big. "file" identifies them as "TrueType font data". They all belong to
my user.

Now I'm wondering where they come from, (maybe OOo, Epdfview or
Acroread?), and if I can I safely remove them.

By the way, does anyone know whether tracker writes to /tmp or /var/tmp?

Thanks in advance!

Florian Philipp
