This issue only occurs in a highly unusual system configuration where

1. /tmp is a separate mount point from / (before oracular, it usually is a 
directory in /)
2. Said mountpoint is mounted noexec (even the tmpfs in oracular is not mounted 
noexec)

Given that there is an easy workaround to set an option in apt.conf,
users who have gone to the trouble of doing those two modifications to
their system also drop a snippet into apt.conf.d.
