Something really fishy is going on here. Note that you get the *same* file_name with both 5.9.8 and 5.12.3. This is already really strange, but the stranger thing is that the last component of abstmp and realtmp changes, becoming lyx_tmpdir.rHrJLJU14712 in one case and lyx_tmpdir.BOxdOihSBXEp in the other one. Seemingly, they are unrelated to file_name... I tried to reproduce your configuration on linux by creating a /tmpriv symlink pointing to /private/tmp and trying to set the temporary dir to /tmpriv. I did non succeed because it seems that the temporary directory cannot be changed and is always /tmp, whatever you set in Preferences->Paths->Temporary directory ! -- Enrico -- lyx-devel mailing list lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-devel
