#36914 closed defect (duplicate)

rpm @4.4.9 tried to access nonexistent /opt/local/var/tmp

Reported by: peter_e@… Owned by: n3npq@…

Component: ports Version: 2.1.2

Port: rpm

Description

Building a package with the rpm port fails with "Unable to open temp file.". It turns out it has tried to create the temp files in /opt/local/var/tmp (per configuration in /opt/local/lib/rpm/macros). That directory doesn't exist. Either the rpm package should be fixed to create that directory, or use /var/tmp, or perhaps macports should symlink /opt/local/var/tmp to /var/tmp in general for the benefit of all ports.
