Description wojnicki 2005-10-20 13:19:17 UTC 
nbexec script creates nbenv file in a temporary directory. For Unix systems the
directory name is hardcoded to be /tmp. Instead $TMPDIR env.variable should be
used, if exists.

line #195, which is:
    nbenvfile="/tmp/nbenv.$$"

should be changed to:

    if [ -z "$TMPDIR" ]; then
        TMPDIR=/tmp
    fi

    nbenvfile="$TMPDIR""/nbenv.$$"

Reassigning for evaluation
Comment 2 mslama 2005-10-24 16:23:19 UTC 
Passing to core. It is platform launcher, nothing to do with installer.
Comment 3 Jan Chalupa 2005-10-24 19:47:50 UTC 
Sounds like a reasonable suggestion. Yarda, can you take care of it?

"#67189: Using TMPDIR instead of hardcoded /tmp directory. As a result the 
launcher creates the temporary file in mine $HOME/tmp and not /tmp on my 
computer"
