Simply grepping for /tmp in source code gives a lot of hits, some of which are dangerous, e.g.: usr/share/rear/verify/DP/default/50_select_dp_restore.sh: test -f /tmp/dp_list_of_sessions.in && rm -f /tmp/dp_list_of_sessions.in Would be nice if all occurences of hardcoded /tmp/.. were replaced with using mktemp.
