Hi all,
I have noticed that my /tmp is full of quilt_refresh.* files. After
investigation, it turns out that quilt refresh leaks temporary files
when you refresh a patch which didn't need to be ("Patch X is
unchanged"). Attached is a patch against quilt CVS, which fixes the
problem.
According to CVS, the bug seems to be there since February 2nd, 2004,
it's somewhat strange that it wasn't spotted earlier. But maybe I am the
only one frantically refreshing patches when they don't need to be ;)
Thanks,
