Recently bumped once again into "misc/58117: installworld /tmp/
problem". Would it be better to solve it at "once and for all" basis?
This is a good choice for securing servers to make /tmp noexec. But when
you did that - you'll have to face this bug again. Yes, it can be solved
by specifying TMPDIR. But:
- UPDATING says nothing about that;
- nor documentation do;
- the message is kindda cryptic and it takes time to understand whats
going on.
Why not document the issue or prevent it by using custom catalog?
