Subject: Re: many packages write to `temporary-file-directory' insecurely
Date: Sat, 9 Mar 2002 03:49:18 -0700 (MST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200203091049.g29AnIo03691@wijiji.santafe.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1015613560.22596.53.camel@space-ghost> (message from Colin Walters on 08 Mar 2002 13:52:40 -0500)

    My original thought was that it might not be appropriate for Emacs in
    general, since Emacs runs on so many platforms, which have differing
    ideas of where to put things like this.  But I guess that someone who
    wants this to be configurable could use the --localstatedir argument to
    configure.

We can easily provide many ways to configure things.
So please do this work in the Emacs sources
rather than in Debian's modified version.  Ok?
