added text that states that if a directory is not provided to mktemp(), the system wide temporary directory, or a suitable unique directory name is prepended to the filename |

Logged In: YES user_id=21627 I don't think this patch addresses the concern of bug 642391. The issue is not in which directory the temporary files are created, but whether the temporary files need to be files. They need not: mktemp can also be used to create temporary directories. Of course, as mktemp suffers from security problems, using mkdtemp (new in 2.3) is better to create temporary directories. |

Logged In: YES user_id=31511 I'd propose to close this patch due to the reasons given in the comment from M.v. Loewis. Additionaly the tempfile.mktemp() has been marked deprecated as of Python 2.3. The same procedure could be applied to the original bug #642391 since adding documentation to an insecure deprecated function only gives the developers more choices on blasting their systems. |

Logged In: YES user_id=21627 So closing the patch as rejected, and the bug report as "won't fix". |
