"Deprecated" doesn't mean anything here. It's just a mention in the documentation. It doesn't produce actual warnings when used. And for good reason: there are valid use cases. > so, from today to 3.9+ there are approximatively 43 months -> 3,5 years. > I think it's enough in term of time for the big projects to improve > their code. Please explain how the "improvement" would look like. What is the intended replacement for the use case I have explained, and how does it improve on the statu quo? And if there is an easy replacement, then how about re-implementing mktemp() using that replacement, instead of removing it?
