Hi Phil,

the selftests ton't remove CanonRaw_5.tmp, ExifTool_17.tmp and Olympus_7.tmp.

Is this by intention?

Hi Oliver,

Wow, that's odd. Somehow the "unlink" is failing in the testVerbose function of my t/TestLib.pm on your system. It works for me. What system are you using?

Edit: I bet Windows. I can see why this might fail on Windows because I forgot to close the file before unlink-ing it, and Windows limits manipulation of open files.. I'll fix that, thanks.

Interesting OS difference.

As you guessed, I found this with my routine tests of the Windows installer and ZIP package.
