Weird rpm-tmp files are taking up too much space in /shared

Hello Tihi.

Those files are created as part of a Build RPM Package process.

REF - https://linux.die.net/man/8/rpmbuild

I share with you some other references:

Example of execution

$ rpmbuild -bb doc.spec
Executing(%prep): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.X07xhN
+ umask 022
+ cd /home/neo/rpmbuild/BUILD
+ exit 0
Executing(%build): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.ANzKAA
+ umask 022
+ cd /home/neo/rpmbuild/BUILD
+ mkdir -p /home/neo/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/netkiller-1.0.1-1.x86_64
+ mkdir -p /home/neo/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/netkiller-1.0.1-1.x86_64/usr/share/doc/
+ exit 0

Usually, those files are removed at the end of the packet construction. Why are they not being removed? actually I don't know. You should better open a support case.

KR,

Dario.
