After checking the archives (I'd never noticed the "this week" link before) I saw only three messages relating to this problem. One mentioning it, one "me to" and one suggesting that one should respond "no" to the delete /var/tmp/temproot prompt. The last suggestion does not fix the problem. The issue was can therefore not be described as having been addressed. I therefore feel that my message, and suggested quick fix, was valid contribution to this mailing list. -- Jose Marques To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
