It has everything to do with acroread. Somewhere in acroread, it calls the libcups function cupsGetPPD (or one of its variants). This function fetches the PPD from the server and returns the filename holding the PPD. If the server is local this can just be a symlink to /tmp. The caller (acroread in this case) "owns" that file, and is responsible for cleaning it up.After booting into runmode 5 and logging in into a GNOME session, immediately after having logged in, these two links have been created, and I'm sure, no acroread runs or has run.But you are running the printing applet in that case (system-config-printer-applet).
Right (I found it in System->Preferences->Startup applications) Once you log out, those temporary files
are cleaned up.
Wrong! These files are not removed when logging out. I tested this, and exactly this is the problem. Maybe, it's a F13 problem, and I didn't check it in F12.
You'll also see the same thing when using the GTK+ print dialog. When the dialog is open it will create those links. After it is done with them it deletes them. What you are seeing is an acroread bug, and only Adobe can fix it. Tim. */
