From 0d303f1764645284b33924c9be8bf29f0a32ca5c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Kalnischkies Date: Mon, 20 Oct 2014 12:00:46 +0200 Subject: test if TMPDIR is accessible before using Private temporary directories as created by e.g. libpam-tmpdir are nice, but they are also very effective in preventing our priviledge dropping to work as TMPDIR will be set to a directory only root has access to, so working with it as _apt will fail. We circumvent this by extending our check for a usable TMPDIR setting by checking access rights.
