<div>Indeed Lars, overwriting TMPDIR via TMPDIR = tmp </div>
<div>caused a problem because the subdirectory tmp/ did *not*</div>
<div>exist for those rules of the Makefile doing latex+dvipdfmx</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>(it was not explicitly needed there: a subdirectory tmp/ was needed, </div>
<div>created, used and then removed by some other rules from the Makefile)</div>
<div> </div>
<div>thus the Makefile was running dvipdfmx with a TMPDIR variable set to</div>
<div>a non-existent directory</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>that this would trigger a warning isn't that surprising</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>it's all my fault,</div>
<div><br>
