I am using Xenial ubuntu. The bash version is GNU bash, version 4.3.48(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)
I am getting this error mktemp: too few X's in template when my shell script executes this command mktemp /tmp/1556580619403-0/duplicate.XXXXXXX.BABj9f0X1bg_work_DADYj9GphRM2_page0_preview.png
The file name is actually constructed like this in a function
myfunction() {
local filename
filename=$0
mktemp /tmp/1556580619403-0/duplicate.XXXXXXX.${filename}
}
The second occurrence of X is apparently causing the problem.
Is there any switch or other methods (other than replacing the second occurrence of X in the file name) that can resolve this issue?

mktemp replaces the last run of Xs in the template:
The final run of ‘X’s in the template will be replaced by alpha-numeric character
The simplest option is to use
mktemp /tmp/1556580619403-0/duplicate.${filename}.XXXXXXX
If you need a file extension, see the --suffix option.
