--- Comment #2 from Patrick Silva <bugseforuns at gmx.com> ---
Default temporary directory was /tmp in previous versions of K3b.
Why was this setting changed? Workaround for bug 385367?
I have found no explaination about the purpose of default temporary directory
setting in K3b handbook. Nero burning rom on Windows, for example, uses a
temporary folder to cache files before and during burning. Is this also the
purpose of default temporary directory setting of K3b?
If so, I don't think that a folder used to store personal data is a good
location to store data that a software uses internally. It would as an internet
browser saving images from webpages in /home/user/pictures by default.
