Charles, Yaakov,

Now that upstream coreutils 6.10 includes mktemp and arch as standard
programs, should we obsolete the mktemp package and reduce the scope of
the util-linux package?  I won't promote coreutils 6.10 to current until
we come to a decision (and I'm open to the alternative idea of not
shipping the coreutils version of these programs).
