mmdebstrap uses $TMPDIR (because that's what Perl's File::Temp uses) and falls back to /tmp for storing the chroot directories it creates. The modification times on files in that chroot directory are potentially much older than 10 days as they match the timestamps on the packages installed in the chroot. Do I understand it correctly that with the proposed change and an unfortunate timing it can happen that files older than 10 days get removed from a temporary chroot directory in /tmp? If yes, how should applications guard against that from happening? Thanks! cheers, josch
