Source: binutils-arm-none-eabi Version: 17 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Dear maintainer,
while testing my fix for #1021193, I ran into an error from autopkgtest
because the home directory of the user running the test was nonexistent
or non-writable.
While debatable whether this is a problem of my autopkgtest
configuration, I'd still like to suggest to use a temporary directory
for that. This will also assert any files created during the are are
purged for sure. See the attached patch.
Regards,
Christoph
