lots of temporary files in /tmp/goose

I encountered this issue today when I found my disk space is exhausted. While investigating the issue, I found a lot of open files in /tmp/goose directory that are silently eating up a significant amount of disk space. Please look into this matter seriously. Lack of disk space seriously affected one of my very important services.

There is an issue in the goose/extractors/images.py file, around line 336 where the link_hash is not correct (if I remember correctly) but it has been fixed in a python3 version of the library: goose3 that is maintained.

Full disclosure: I help maintain goose3
