Re: /tmp


I assume you mean as a link to a windows temp directory somewhere.  However,
what if that gets changed by someone?  Suddenly a lot of stuff starts
breaking, and people start posting here asking why application foo isn't
working.  The majority of the people are fine with a hardwired /tmp
directory.  If you're not, make the symlink yourself.

cheers,
