In regard to: [OpenIndiana-discuss] A question about the Mate update, Jason...:
Why are there so many sockets opened in ~/.cache by :
gnome/accessibility/at-spi2-atk 2.24.1-2020.0.1.0 i--
gnome/accessibility/at-spi2-core 2.24.1-2020.0.1.1 i--

Hmmm, I didn't notice that MATE was doing that.
Doing some quick tracing with truss, virtually every MATE component is
creating one of these directories and a socket when it's launched.
I don't know if they're having problems communicating the other
accessibility components, but it kind of seems that way.
If you don't use any assistive technology, you can add
NO_AT_BRIDGE=1; export NO_AT_BRIDGE
to your .profile and it will stop all of the MATE components (and probably
other stuff) from using the accessibility bridge.
That's at most a workaround.
I'll do some research and see if I can find any other reports of this for
MATE 1.26 or other software.
Thanks for reporting it!
