Oh well, sorry I was partly wrong:

- you still need a /tmp/ filesystem
- wherever the config file is located, elisa will attempt to write to
$HOME/.elisa-0.5/ so you need to be logged. Otherwise you can edit the
source code and change the line instructing elisa where to write files
(elisa/core/application.py somewhere at the beginning)
