I just checked my var/temp when I came across the above postings thanks! thanks to your bugreport specifying that you were using downloaded package, i could reproduce the bug, isolate it in 1 minute and fix it! :-) it will be in 9.0-6mdk. -- Guillaume Cottenceau - http://people.mandrakesoft.com/~gc/

I have over 300 which I will now delete and free up the space. Can this be fixed? I am using an up-to-date cooker and only upgrade with rpm drake

I just checked my var/temp when I came across the above postings and found that I had over 700 tmp files for a total of 1.2 GB of disk space. I flushed the directory and began some updates while monitoring the var/tmp folder. Practically every package that grpmi downloads generates a tmp file which doesn't ever get cleaned out. Watching the var/cache/urpmi folder shows downoaded packages appearing and get cleaned away properly. During the upgrades, after download but before installation, I can clear out the var/tmp directory with no ill side effects. I have been running rpmdrake from konsole because as I've mentioned in a previous post when I run from drakconf my CPU cycles and memory begin to overload quite quickly. I don't appear to have these problems while running rpmdrake, just the constant creation of the tmp files.

I had to created a symlink between /var/tmp and /usr/tmp to get around this problem. Here's a snapshot of my /usr/tmp directory.
