tophat tmp_name()

[deepsea]

Hi,

Here I got one more problem with tophat. I installed tophat 1.0.12 on another ubuntu 9.10 box successfully, but it cannot run, with this error message:

Something wrong with tmp_name()? this machine use gcc 4.4, python 2.6.4.

I was driving crazy... :-(

Thanks for your time.
