Replying to [comment:1 fbissey]:
> It is very odd indeed. I am expecting that it just check the existence
of HOME and doesn't write anything there. We would have sandbox violation
while building maxima in Gentoo otherwise (outside of sage that is).
Maybe you don't have `HOME` set there at all?
OTOH Sage always sets `HOME` if it isn't already.
Still weird that the file `cp` wants to copy apparently doesn't get built
(or renamed / copied / whatever to the proper one) in this case. We've
seen the same error on other(?) occasions already...
