The $tmpdir environment variable is used by the eval and sh plugins to communicate the path to the temporary directory created by the plugin for shell scripts to use for temporary files. Previously we set this environment variable globally (in .load()), but this means the environment variable can be leaked into undesirable places, eg. into the --run script: $ nbdkit sh - --run 'echo

Dear R Help, My apologies if this is widely known, but I didn't find this in the R archives. I am running WinXP pro and R 1.90. Rcmd build or check fails with the error: "Please set TMPDIR to a valid temporary directory" $TMPDIR is set to $TMPDIR or C:/TEMP in share\perl\R\Var.pm. TMPDIR or c:\temp do not exist on WinXP on my laptop. I have C:\WUTemp and the env variables

Hello R-users: I'm experiencing difficulty in building a package in R 1.4.1 under Windows 2000. When I run Rcmd I get this: F:\r\library>f:\r\bin\rcmd check ringsim Please set TMPDIR to a valid temporary directory F:\r\library>f:\r\bin\rcmd build ringsim Please set TMPDIR to a valid temporary directory This problem was discussed over a year ago - the problem was attributed to a Perl

If an environment variable such as XDG_RUNTIME_DIR or one of the tmpdirs or cachedir is set to a non-existent directory, improve the error message that the user will see so that (where possible) it includes the environment variable or API call. This is still not bullet-proof because it's hard to display the environment variable if it is LIBGUESTFS_TMPDIR or LIBGUES...

Hi folks, I'm having a spot of bother with tempdir(). If I set the environment variable TMPDIR in my shell prior to invoking R it works as expected: > Sys.getenv("TMPDIR") TMPDIR "/eurotempest/tmp/R" > tempdir() [1] "/eurotempest/tmp/R/Rtmp0xY4XD" However if I don't set it prior to entry, but attempt to set it from within

I use my "custom" TMPDIR variable with virt-sparsify. I just type: export -p TMPDIR=/mnt/vm/tmpdir I do that for a couple reasons: either my /tmp is on a ramdisk or /tmp is on my (ssd) rootfs and i dont want to "full" my / with the temporally files. Thats said, i was thinking to "ask" OR sending a patch for adding a tmpdir OPTION for virt-sparsify like

This test has been broken for a while. It is meant to test that when the appliance cachedir is empty, two simultaneous runs of libguestfs (both rebuilding the full appliance) will not cause conflicts, because (eg) the locking in either supermin or libguestfs is not working. However the test only set $TMPDIR, but the ./run script sets $LIBGUESTFS_CACHEDIR which overrides $TMPDIR, so it was simply

Hello, This may not be a bug--but I'm not sure. I have R 1.91 installed on a machine that's running Windows XP. In Cygwin, when I attempt to use the "build" command it tells me that TMPDIR is set to an invalid directory. See the results below: stat20:/cygdrive/d/dirk/bands/implementation -> which r /cygdrive/d/Programs/R/rw1091/bin/r
