Hi there,
I'd like to hear about your gut feeling on https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1205598 so that we can adjust the strategy we'll choose at Tails to deal with it:
* Any clue what are the chances that Mozilla fixes it say, within 3-6 months? I see that the Private Browsing component has 175 open bugs, most of them unassigned, so I'm personally not very hopeful.
* If it's hopeless to just wait for Mozilla, is it something you think the TBB dev team will want _and_ be able to work on any time soon, as a somewhat important violation of the TBB design goals? If yes, what would be a realistic ETA?
Note that as far as Tails is concerned, honoring $TMPDIR would be good enough, even if it wouldn't fix the real PB bug.
Perhaps just mentioning it here will somehow let our dear anonym come up with a patch, but this one seems quite harder, so let's not count on it :)
[Internal tracking: this is about Tails bug #10141]
Cheers,
