Comment:
Thanks for the report. You could add something like this before changing
TMPDIR to find out what value is initially set for it, if any:
{{{
if {[info exists ::env(TMPDIR)]} {
ui_msg "TMPDIR = $::env(TMPDIR)"
} else {
ui_msg "TMPDIR is not set in the environment"
}
}}}
If TMPDIR is nonexistent or not writable, Tcl should theoretically fall
back to using /tmp, which is a link to /private/tmp on macOS. So maybe
check the permissions on that as well.
