should we just skip the file when the permission is denied? when errno == EACCES "at" is wrongly reported as damaged.
If you ignore the permission denied you will ignore missing files that are in protected directories. -Qk should be run as root. And I still don't get why you absolutely want to search in /tmp, it makes the return value of -Qk totally irrelevant in scripts.
