The thing I don't understand here is why this problem in
octave-vibes was diagnosed as an "unwritable $HOME" in the first
place.
This is what I concluded after running some tests, but I do not
remember the details. I will try to replicate it.
I did the investigation again, using pbuilder. Here is what I found:
– In my case, pbuilder sets HOME=/nonexistent/ and debhelper (compat
level = 13) keeps that setting. Hence, the package FTBFS.
– If I use "export HOME = /tmp", for instance, in debian/rules, then
the build succeeds.
Best,
