Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/GameServerManagers/LinuxGSM/issues/3100

User Story

LGSM attempts to write to /tmp/dumps, but can't if another install has written it first.

Basic info

Distro: CentOS 7.9
Game: SDTD
Command: install
LinuxGSM version: v20.5.1

Further Information

Anything that touches /tmp/dumps should maybe use /tmp/dumps/username/timestamp.txt

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

Install a server, with another user already having written to /tmp/dumps/
See this:

[100%] Download Complete.
[----] Applying update...
[----] Extracting package...
[----] Installing update...
[----] Cleaning up...
[----] Update complete, launching...
Redirecting stderr to '/home/sdtd/.local/share/Steam/logs/stderr.txt'
/tmp/dumps is not owned by us - delete and recreate
Unable to delete /tmp/dumps. Continuing anyway.

Expected behaviour

Maybe have a different subdirectory.

For reference:

What you see there:

Redirecting stderr to '/home/sdtd/.local/share/Steam/logs/stderr.txt'
/tmp/dumps is not owned by us - delete and recreate
Unable to delete /tmp/dumps. Continuing anyway.

is something steamcmd does here, so nothing in direct LGSM does here.
I would not consider it a lgsm bug.
