[Bug 1196218] Re: setting "at" event causes root partition to fill

[Marcello Romani]

While in my home dir, I typed
at 19:00
(the exact time is not important).
The at console appeared.
I then typed
myplayer song.mp3
(song.mp3 is in my home dir)
Then pressed CTRL+D

That's all.

Did a test a few minutes ago: / usage starts to grow as soon as the scheduled action starts.
It keeps growning even after the action is complete, until / is full.

A sudo /etc/init.d/atd restart is enough to stop the growth and bring
the / usage back to its previous level.
