Here's a snapshot of my /usr/tmp directory. Notice the timestamps which represents the various times I ran rpmdrake: -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 475957 Aug 20 09:01 rpm-tmp.19109 -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 70064 Aug 20 07:49 rpm-tmp.24224 -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 11270376 Aug 20 09:01 rpm-tmp.34129 -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 8378763 Aug 20 09:02 rpm-tmp.35531 -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 315339 Aug 20 09:01 rpm-tmp.49406 -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 2331879 Aug 20 09:01 rpm-tmp.51709 -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 148662 Aug 20 09:01 rpm-tmp.51831 -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 115368 Aug 20 07:49 rpm-tmp.52916 -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 2598405 Aug 20 07:48 rpm-tmp.6007 -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 172014 Aug 20 07:48 rpm-tmp.62857 -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 16901550 Aug 20 07:49 rpm-tmp.65067 -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 265143 Aug 20 07:48 rpm-tmp.72139 -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 9085368 Aug 20 10:53 rpm-tmp.73781 -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 7279092 Aug 20 09:02 rpm-tmp.82118 -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 7846567 Aug 20 09:00 rpm-tmp.87922 -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 2325657 Aug 20 09:00 rpm-tmp.96699
