Can't we build on ADTTMP here, i.e. create either a tmpdir or a dir with a nice name like fakehomeforautopkgtest under $ADTTMP and export HOME=$ADTTMP/whateverwetake? I also guess that we need HOME only for the smoke tests, so this could just be added to our smoke script. OTOH, that defeats the idea of a generic env-smoke setup. > Finally, my original concerns in this bug about executable configuration > files still apply. I would appreciate input on this. See > https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=763541#5 I'm also a bit weary about running a random pre-smoke script; your comment | Or we could implement 'env-smoke' now and leave 'pre-smoke' for | later, which I guess is the normal Debian way of not deciding | anything :) sounds good to me.
