Extends TMPDIR_DEFAULT to mc-wrapper scripts - exit to CWD

Extends TMPDIR_DEFAULT to mc-wrapper scripts,
resolves exit to mc's current working directory.

Comment 1 Andrea 2017-04-22 19:13:48 UTC
mc -P actually works with any folder as long as it exists.

so the old way was

mc -P /tmp/mc-username/XYZ

and because

#define TMPDIR_DEFAULT "/tmp"

mc would create the path /tmp/mc-username first and later would be able to save the last directory file in there.

Now

#define TMPDIR_DEFAULT "/var/tmp"

so nobody creates /tmp/mc-username which is still used by mc-wrapper.

This explains why this patch works, and I would vote for it.

Can we have it in Fedora 25 as well please.

Comment 16 Knud Christiansen 2017-05-16 19:11:12 UTC
4.8.19-4 has also the failure.....exit not to current folder
Change mc-wrapper to /var/tmp from /tmp makes it work

Comment 17 vvs 2017-05-16 22:38:19 UTC
No wonder, mc-tmpdir-cwd.patch is a "metapatch". It doesn't actually patch mc-wrapper.[c]sh.in files, but creates Extends-TMPDIR_DEFAULT-to-mc-wrapper-scripts.patch file instead. So, this patch didn't get applied again.
