I've been attempting to use LyX on a G4 iCube (Mac OS X 10.3.9). I
regularly get dialog windows with messages like:
Could not remove the temporary directory
/tmp/lyx_tmpdir24268OWp5HN/lyx_tmpbuf0
I've checked the /tmp directory: the folder in question is there, and
permissions are appropriately set, so I'm at a loss as to why this
error occurs.
