kitten ssh remote host with read only homedir

[ragazenta]

mktemp: failed to create directory via template ‘/home/user/.kitty-ssh-kitten-untar-XXXXXXXXXXXX’: Read-only file system
Creating temp directory failed

Is there any workaround to support this without installing kitty-terminfo.

Thanks.

No, there isn't.

I'm curious about this line, I found it inside /usr/lib64/kitty.

kitty/shell-integration/ssh/bootstrap.sh

Line 108 in 9843b5c

tdir=$(command mktemp -d "$HOME/.kitty-ssh-kitten-untar-XXXXXXXXXXXX")

I've modified it to mktemp on different path, but kitten ssh still use the same path.

If you want to modify kitty source, you need to build it as well. https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/build/

Oh, I thought kitty will just call the modified shell script. Then what is the purpose of those scripts provided in the package (rpm or deb), if I cannot run modified one without rebuilding?
