Description

When Suricata-Update runs "suricata -T", it also uses "-l /tmp", which can fail when existing files are in that directory and are not writable by the current instance for Suricata-Update. Using a temporary directory should solve issues here.

For example, creating a directory with tempfile.mkdtemp() then removing it with an exit hook.
