I am not sure if it was parsed or not, OpenDMARC did atleast not 
complain about when the "TemporaryDirectory" directive was in the 
opendmarc.conf

I am not really sure where "the current directory" is in my case. I do 
run a small script that run following:

/usr/sbin/opendmarc-import -dbhost=${DBHOST} -dbuser=${DBUSER} 
-dbpasswd=${DBPASS} -dbname=${DBNAME} -verbose < /tmp/${HISTFILE}.$$
/usr/sbin/opendmarc-reports -dbhost=${DBHOST} -dbuser=${DBUSER} 
-dbpasswd=${DBPASS} -dbname=${DBNAME} -verbose -interval=86400 
-report-email 'reports at dmarc.domain.tld' -report-org 'domain.tld'
/usr/sbin/opendmarc-expire -dbhost=${DBHOST} -dbuser=${DBUSER} 
-dbpasswd=${DBPASS} -dbname=${DBNAME} -verbose

I run the cronjob as the user "opendmarc", and this small script is 
located here: /usr/local/bin/opendmarc-x.sh¨
Is it not possible to define where temporary files to other directories, 
like /var/tmp?
