I don't see why it wouldn't work in Solaris. It took me a bit to find
out its source package [1], but it compiles (and seems to run)
flawlessly [2].
I only regret that it doesn't have a blaming option to notify users on
how dirty the left the filesystem. :)

[Toolserver-l] /tmp is not a waste dump
Hello all, few minutes ago I had to clean ortelius' /tmp again because it was nearly full (there is up to 13GB space). Using temp-files is a great thing and we all know that clean-up is boring stuff – but please: If you can not make your tools clean after them self then YOU have to clean up for them from time to time. /tmp at ortelius contains over 9000 small files at the moment – I VERY doubt that most of them are still needed. So please look what is still needed, fix your tools and/or write a cleaning-script. Otherwise I have to write a system-wide script that will delete all files that are older than x days. Sincerely, DaB. P.S: It is totally ok for Operators to delete files in /tmp if the space becomes tight. -- Userpage: [[:w:de:User:DaB.]] — PGP: 0x2d3ee2d42b255885 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part. ___ Toolserver-l mailing list (Toolserver-l@lists.wikimedia.org) https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/toolserver-l Posting guidelines for this list: https://wiki.toolserver.org/view/Mailing_list_etiquette

Thanks, I fixed this. Be aware, though, that this doesn't reflect the actual configu- ration of the Toolserver as shown recently when the Wikidata schema changed.
