tempdir() may be deleted during long-running R session
...d solution to me,
sooner or later someone might come with auto-cleaning that directory too.
It might still be useful if R could sometimes detect when automated
cleanup happened and warn the user. Perhaps a simple way could be to
always create an empty file inside session directory, like
".tmp_cleaner_trap". R would never touch this file, but check its
existence time-to-time. If it gets deleted, R would issue a warning and
ask the user to check tmp cleaner configuration. The idea is that this
file will be the oldest one in the session directory, so would get
cleaned up first.
