Tools won't get cleanup or get reused about arkade-get

Hi @kanimaru

1. Can you define "fills up"? The binaries people tend to pull in are just a few megabytes.
2. Why do you think the arkade-get action is to blame for creating files in /tmp/arkade-* and not arkade itself?
3. Is your /tmp directory being properly managed? What's the OS?
4. And why are you not using an ephemeral runner solution? Reusing the same runner is dangerous and causes a lot of unexpected side-effects.

Sorry was in Vacation.

Can you define "fills up"? The binaries people tend to pull in are just a few megabytes.

Even couple of megabytes are in sum very heavy especially when multiple projects don't cleanup afterwards.

Why do you think the arkade-get action is to blame for creating files in /tmp/arkade-* and not arkade itself?

I'm not sure didn't looked deeper into it just saw that there wars tons of /tmp/arkade-* folders that was killing the build maschine

Is your /tmp directory being properly managed? What's the OS?

I don't know how the Runner is setup. Different Team manages it but I would guess they didn't change much from default installation. It's Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS

And why are you not using an ephemeral runner solution? Reusing the same runner is dangerous and
causes a lot of unexpected side-effects.

I know but I have no other choice I can be happy that I get at least 1 worker to build my stuff. It's bad cooperated decision... don't ask.

But it's OK I just wanted to report that you maybe had a bug that you probably fixed already. I have to swap to another solution. From the new runner I got, I can't connect to the internet without going over a proxy. And Arkade seems not to care about proxies at least I think so. Action responded with a 502 when it tries to install tools. But manually I can pull the tool or arkade with curl. Will now build a Docker Image with the tools I need and use this :/.

But thx for the response and the fix <3

We've made some changes to try and recover some of the folders, for folks who are not running with ephemeral runners, like yourself.
