[GRASS-dev] [bug #4450] (grass) g.remove vect: empty dirs in the $MAPSET/.tmp/$HOSTNAME left

I have built current Grass 6.1 CVS on Ubuntu Breezy with
http://mpa.itc.it/markus/tmp/clean_temp2.c apllied.

Built fine. Empty dirs are still left after 'g.remove vect', but they are
removed after quiting Grass session. Is this what it's expected to do? I'd
prefer each such empty dir be removed right after 'g.remove vect' is done, but
maybe this is not so critical.

Yes. Because the clean_temp is called upon start and stop of a GRASS
session using the standard launch procedure ("grass61").

This is an issue of the program creating the vector map in
question. Which one did you use? A script, r.* or v.*?
