Usually the way this works is you create the tmpfile and immediately unlink it, so if the process terminates it's not kept lying around. And on linux, you should use O_TMPFILE which gives you a file that's *never* been linked. I do concur that tmp files should only be created in tmp directories, not $HOME. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/pcre-dev
