[Logcheck-users] logcheck-test incompatibility on OSX

Hi,

On OSX mktemp does not take the '--tmpdir' argument, which makes the
logcheck-test command choke:

  CLEANRULE="$(mktemp --tmpdir logcheck-test.XXXXXXXXXX)"

I am not well versed in debian development land, would like to ask the
package maintainers whether they are open to making logcheck-test work
on OSX.

There is an open pull request for homebrew/logcheck in which a patch
for mktemp is applied - it would be nice if this patch would land
upstream:

https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/pull/46663


Thanks,

Jan-Jaap
