PSPP-BUG: [bug #33483] temporary directory

[John Darrington]

Update of bug #33483 (project pspp):

                 Release:                    None => Before 0.8.0

Follow-up Comment #6:

Now that you mention it, the temp directories are not getting removed on
debian either.

I think there are multiple causes.  The temp dir fails to be removed both in
the case where pspp exits normally and upon SIGINT.


Looking at the pspp source, I notice a couple of things:

* In src/libpspp/ext-array.c line 72 the call to fclose should 
  instead be a call to close_temp_file

* In src/libpspp/temp-file.c the function create_temp_file is
  missing a call to register_temp_file


I made these changes and found that the temp dir is then removed
upon SIGINT, but not on normal exit.

* Looking in the gnulib source lib/clean-temp.c I can see a line
  of the form at_fatal_signal (cleanup) but nothing to indicate
  that cleanup will be called on a normal exit (although the 
  comment in clean-temp.h says that it will
