Package: cacti
Version: 0.8.6i-3.2
Severity: normal

A normal paranoid sysadmin mounts /tmp in noexec mode. Therefore no
script should be copied in /tmp and executed.

As I tried to install cacti the script complained without exiting that
script were copied and not executed in /tmp.

I rated it normal, I think this bug is however severe. 

Stll like cacti. 

Thank for what you do by the way, and joyeuses fêtes. 

Julien
