Writing into $HOME/.local is just completely wrong :-) The test suite
must not modify the "system".

On a buildbot, $HOME is the root directory / and so the test is
skipped since the buildbot user is not allowed to create /.local.

If you want to enhance the code: setUpModule() should mock $HOME to
use a temporary directory.
